{"product_id":"9780983745884","title":"Traces of Bliss","description":"What would you risk to relive the bliss?\u003cbr\u003eIn the affluent Los Feliz enclave of Los Angeles, five welathy seniors recall vivid memories of ancestors after Claire, a young massage therapist, uses her grandmother’s speically blended, Amazonian, aromatherapy oil. The\u003cbr\u003eseniors' live-in caregivers, each with a rich history, are inevitably caught up in the drama as the past collides with the present.\u003cbr\u003eThe caregivers divulge details of the memories to Alma Ruiz, a pseudo-homeopath, amateur genealogist, and pathological liar. She conspires with Soledad to dupe the vulnerable seniors into paying them vast amounts for\u003cbr\u003ememory retrieval reenactments. Alma and Soledad’s transgressions awaken the buried shamanistic sense of Octavio, a gifted gardener who immigrated to Los Angeles seeking revenge from the oil companies that dumped oil\u003cbr\u003ein the Shuar tribal lands of Amazonian Ecuador. He reacts instinctively to protect Claire and the susceptible seniors.\u003cbr\u003eTraces of Bliss reveals how memory can travel through the blood, and how much we are willing to sacrifice for lost treasures from the past.","brand":"Libros Publishing LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47120432791792,"sku":"9780983745884","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780983745884_p0.jpg?v=1763888238","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780983745884","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
