One woman’s secret will shape another’s destiny …

But she’s about to encounter a young man, Johnny Robsart, whose fate will interlace with hers in the most unexpected of ways. For Johnny is certain that Lizzie is linked to a terrible secret dating back to Tudor times. If Lizzie is brave enough to go in search of the truth, then what she discovers will change the course of their lives forever.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Lizzie.. discovers that her ability to read the energy of objects might help untangle terrible secrets dating back to Tudor times. In Cornick’s novel, the two periods are woven together, with moments in each story line supporting the past and present. Historical events and people are depicted authentically, and the contemporary action features a relatable pop culture setting…Amateur sleuth fans, historical fiction readers, devotees of Kate Morton and Kate Atkinson, or readers looking for an engaging escape to a fictional world should pick up this one.” Library Journal
“Cornick incorporates elements of romance and paranormal genres…[and] the author does a good job with pacing and plot detail.” Publishers Weekly
