The 5th and final book in the ANNIE'S JOURNEY series, Grand Illusion: Lesson of a Balinese Lotus, finds young Balinese fabric designer, Mara, at the pinnacle of the fashion world! With the financial support of wealthy Arab magnate, Bajir Al Farooq, and his son Zayn, Mara has relocated to Milan, Italy, and is carving a name for herself beneath the dazzle of Milan's high society fashion elite. Yet, behind the glittering façade, Mara’s humble Balinese identity is lost in a labyrinth of illusions. One fateful night, Mara meets Wayan, a fellow Balinese soul and costume designer to the legendary opera diva, Antonella Rossi. Both Wayan and Antonella are entangled in their own webs of deception, struggling to maintain authenticity amidst the pressures of fame and fortune. As Mara and Wayan's paths intertwine, the echoes of their homeland call them back to Bali, where the roots of their heritage await to ground them once more. But even if the wisdom and symbolism of their ancestors offer clarity, can they find the courage to redefine their paths?
