An anxious young woman's life begins to unravel, revealing the deceptions that lie at its foundation. Geillis' husband Hendrie returns home wounded from fighting for the Army of the Dutch Republic against Spain. On his trail, three young people arrive, but they are too late: Hendrie has already returned to the Netherlands. As the secret of his double life is uncovered, the ensuing story is one of hospitality, kinship, loyalty, and heartbreak. Set in Midlothian, Scotland in 1603, debut author Maggie Williams Richmond delves into her family history to bring together the tensions of both then and now: race, religion, and politics.
Spring 1625. Jack, a young Scottish baker longing for adventure, seizes the opportunity to work on a trading boat, the Eagle, bound for Belgium and France. When the Eagle is forced to halt in La Rochelle for repairs, Jack discovers that his childhood friend Robin has gone missing after fighting for the Huguenots in the Battle of Blavet. Feeling obliged to seek him out, Jack's new journey takes him across northern Spain, where suspicion of both foreigners and non-Catholics is widespread. After encountering thieves masquerading as pilgrims, Jack discovers that possessing a book by Galileo can be dangerous: he needs to leave in a hurry! Set in the turbulent world of 17th century Europe, this story draws on real historical figures in a Britain and Europe uncannily like our own.
