About this listen

Paula Brackston, New York Times best-selling author of The Witch's Daughter, returns with her trademark blend of magic and romance guaranteed to enchant in the first audiobook in a new series.

An antique shop haunted by a ghost. A silver treasure with an injustice in its story. An adventure to the past she’ll never forget.

Xanthe and her mother, Flora, leave London behind for a fresh start, taking over an antique shop in the historic town of Marlborough. Xanthe has always had an affinity with some of the antiques she finds. When she touches them, she can sense something of the past they come from and the stories they hold. When she has an intense connection to a beautiful silver chatelaine, she has to know more.

It is while she’s examining the chatelaine that she’s transported back to the 17th century, where it has its origins. She discovers there is an injustice in its history. The spirit that inhabits her new home confronts her and charges her with saving her daughter’s life, threatening to take Flora’s if she fails.

While Xanthe fights to save the girl amid the turbulent days of 1605, she meets architect Samuel Appleby. He may be the person who can help her succeed. He may also be the reason she can’t bring herself to leave.

I really loved listening to this book - the narrator, the story, the time travel, all of it...but the ending. I was waiting for the author to tie something together with the past, some sort of connection but just like that the story was over and everything went back to normal. This says it’s a series...maybe she’ll pick something up in the next one?

Loved...until the ending

You have to love a story that transports the reader to another time in history, and keeps you grounded in the present; all the while looking forward to the future. I could not stop listening once I started. The narrator has a pleasant voice that relaxes you with the characters. A lovely story from start to finish. I look forward to more books from this author and narrator.

Enchanting, enticing, and compelling story.

You know this is about time travel, and pieces of it are pretty predictable, nonetheless it is a fun diversion very well performed. The characters are all quite likeable.

A good fantastical ride

This was a lovely book to listen to anytime. I was worried about the ghost mom. I worried about the return to her own time. I was invested in the relationship with her mother. It was lovely!

Fun listen
