Synopsis

A novel of 17th century Ireland and Montserrat

In 1649, England’s uncrowned king Oliver Cromwell leads his brutal army across Ireland to crush a violent rebellion. In her small village of Skebreen, 15-year-old Elvy Burke trembles against the thunder of their approach. When Cromwell murders a defenseless village boy, Elvy vows to destroy him. She escapes his soldiers only to be thrust headlong into a tumultuous journey alongside a Scottish outlaw whose schemes land her far from home in the savage West Indies. Forced to work on an island sugar plantation, she must learn to survive in a harsh and lawless land. Yet, her fiery nature won’t let her forget her sworn vow. Somehow she must get back to Cromwell.
