About this listen

Are some secrets worth dying for?

Ireland, 1588. Rafael de Silva washes ashore on an Irish beach after a catastrophic shipwreck, carrying only his secret Jewish faith and a golden hamsa. He is starving and desperate when he meets Aisling O’Rourke, a local chieftain’s niece, and experiences a blinding desire he has never felt before. But their love is impossible, and when Rafael’s precious hamsa is discovered, he faces a terrible choice: admit to a secret that could see him nailed to a cross or watch an innocent man die in his place.

Present day. The discovery of a hamsa amulet beside crucified remains near an Irish castle is a puzzle to Quinn Allenby until her psychic gift connects her to the artifact’s terrible history. But as she pieces together Rafael’s story, her twin sister’s arrival with devastating secrets forces Quinn to confront a painful truth: some betrayals span generations, and the past has a way of demanding payment from the living.

A haunting tale of religious persecution, forbidden love, and family secrets that echo through the centuries. The next addictive listen for fans of Diana Gabaldon, Susanna Kearsley, and Barbara Erskine.

In book 7 of this awsome series Quinn is called to a cruxifiction scene in Ireland. It is horrible and it shakes her hard. She comes away with a small amulet, hiding behind the bodies pelvis. Once she makes contact she learns it belongs to the young Raphael de Silva. A spanish soldier in the Spanish Inquisition and washed ashore on the coast of Ireland after the English have done a number on the Spanish fleet. He and his captain, who is badly wounded, manage to get away from the beach where an angry mob is killing everybody still alive. They manage to find shelter and after a long journey they arrive at a castle where the Lord gives them and another 20 other Spanish soldiers shelter and food as a rebel to Queen Elizabeth.. But Raphael carries a deep secret which would end with his dead if anybody would find out.And when they all find themselves sieged by the English things quickly go out of control. Meanwhile Quinn is doing everything in her power to keep connected to her new found twinsister Jo. But Jo is not what she hoped she would be. Both Gabe and Reese see that although Jo looks a lot like their father, she has their mother's character. It takes a missing baby and another disappearing from Jo that Quinn realises she can be happy with the family she has. Another amazing book in this series and again Wendy Wolfson does an excellent job with many different voices. Loved it.

Quinns story goes from strength to strength and the echoes from the past take us back to a time that reverberates through today. Yet another fantastic continuation. I will have to wait a while for the next to be written now!
