About this listen

In 1540, newly married and pregnant Isobel Devlin vanished from a tiny island in Lancashire, never to be seen again.

In 2020, leaving London for the first time since the pandemic began, Nicole Rayburn and Kyle Walsh head to a guesthouse in the Lake District for a much-needed holiday. Across from the historic manor house, on an island in the middle of a lake, are the ruins of Montrose Abbey, the last known abode of Lady Isobel Devlin. Intrigued, Nicole begins to research Lady Isobel’s disappearance as the subject for a new book and calls on her history-loving friend Reverend Hargreaves for help.

As Nicole unearths long-forgotten truths about the mysterious Lady Devlin, finding many gaping holes in the story of her disappearance, she must fight for her own happiness against a rival whose claim to Kyle’s heart might be stronger than she expected.

I thought the story and the mystery in the past was very entertaining. However, I was very disappointed that the author saw fit to include covid in her story. People read books and watch movies to escape, bringing covid into the story literally turned my stomach.

Very enjoyed!

Irina Shapiro is one of my favorite suthors. I love how she weaves a present-day story into one of the past. Her female characters are strong, but very human showing a range of emotions. She is able to transport me into the lives of people who lived during fascinating periods of history to tell their story.

Top Notch Historical Mystery

A tale regaled with action, love, lust, and drama will leave the reader/ listener craving the next line as much as their next breath.
The narrator is exquisite and proper. I love that Jess has the ability to troll between male and female voices without sounding strained or over the top. The overall plot is very much like “The Hanging Tree” but you could also say this is the book Nicole Rayburn wrote OR this is a story how it happened and join Nicole, Kyle and friends in their quest through history. Either way it’s a great book! Bravo! Now, on to the next.

Irina Shapiro DOES IT AGAIN!

Ok, admittedly this is a guilty type of historical fiction, romantic but not quite smutty and full of happy endings. Still, it is rich in history and full of modern accuracy to our current lives! Loved it!

Irina Shapiro nails it again!

I am a fan of Irina Shapiro’s books and this one did not disappoint! My favorite series is Wonderland but Echoes is a very close second. This one is similar to Echoes with the dual time period and stories. I can’t wait to see what Nicole and Kyle run into next! Brilliant!

Excellent!

I've read several books by Irina Shapiro and she does not disappoint! Her characters are rich, her historical detail highly researched, and her prose lovely! The mysteries are engaging and deeply satisfying, making you want to explore old ruins, find old documents, and uncover the shocking stories lurking behind those dried up census records saved to your Ancestry.com family tree.
The heroines, from vastly different times, are both relatable and authentic, their stories intimately told.

Well Done...Again!

I so love the continuation of Nicole and Kyle’s story. Beautiful written with Isabel in the 1500’s and Nicole in a present day covid pandemic. I loved seeing how Henry V111's decisions affected the people of England. Amazing narration combined with the beautiful writing of come to expect from Irina Shapiro is a true winning combination

Fantastic dual pst and present storyline

Just like “The Hanging Tree” I was on edge wondering what was happening in both the present story and the past. Captivating tale with interesting characters. I loved Kyle and Nicole in the Hanging Tree and was excited to see their story continue here. Since I wasn’t expecting this to be a series, I am curious if there will be a 3rd installment.

I was hooked from the beginning
