Description

In today's world, she would be called psychic, or perhaps a person with a gift. In Colonial New England there were other names for such people—words like witch and sorcerer.

On the surface, Mercy Browne seems like an ordinary young Englishwoman, but she has known since childhood that she must keep secret the fact that she has disturbing visions. That they always involve violence and death is bad enough, but every vision throws her into treacherous waters. If the wrong person notices her odd behavior, in London or in the New World, she will be in mortal danger.

When she realizes that treasure-hunter Luke Hartford may not always be around to save her, Mercy has to find the inner strength not only to survive, but to thrive.
