An antique shop haunted by a ghost. A silver
treasure with an injustice in its story. An
adventure to the past she’ll never forget.
Xanthe
and her mother Flora leave London behind for a fresh start,
taking over an antique shop in the historic town of
Marlborough. Xanthe has always had an affinity with some of
the antiques she finds. When she touches them, she can sense
something of the past they come from and the stories they
hold. When she has an intense connection to a beautiful
silver chatelaine she has to know more.
It is while
she’s examining the chatelaine that she’s transported back
to the seventeenth century where it has its origins. She
discovers there is an injustice in its history. The spirit
that inhabits her new home confronts her and charges her
with saving her daughter’s life, threatening to take Flora’s
if she fails.
While Xanthe fights to save the girl
amid the turbulent days of 1605, she meets architect Samuel
Appleby. He may be the person who can help her succeed. He
may also be the reason she can’t bring herself to
leave.
New York Times bestselling author of
The Witch's Daughter Paula Brackston returns to her
trademark blend of magic and romance guaranteed to enchant
in this first book in a new continuing series.
