About
Some secrets span centuries. Some loves transcend death.
Dunwich, 1346. Petra's world shattered the day the Church took her beloved Avery, forcing him into holy orders and leaving her to face a brutal arranged marriage. Twelve years later, Petra is a widow struggling to care for her three children when Father Avery returns. But religious hysteria is sweeping through their crumbling port town, and when Petra's son's violent seizures mark him as cursed, can she turn to the only man she ever loved for help, or will a terrible secret she hid condemn them all?
Present day. Quinn Allenby's psychic ability to see into the past through touch feels more like a curse when skeletal remains are discovered near medieval Dunwich. The woman and child are buried face-down in unmarked graves, an iron cross between them. It's an unheard-of practice, and Quinn knows she must uncover their story.
As Quinn witnesses Petra's desperate fight for survival, she faces an impossible choice of her own-one that will reshape her future and teach her that sometimes the greatest love requires the greatest sacrifice…
An epic story of passion, betrayal, and the timeless power of love to triumph over tragedy, that will captivate fans of Diana Gabaldon, Barbara Erskine, and Susanna Kearsley.
