Publisher's Summary:
It may be impossible to alter the past, but Irish revolutionary Nora O'Reilly is determined to try. Armed with a relic given to her by the goddess Brigid and joined by immortal Irish warrior Fionn mac Cumhaill, Nora is hurled back through time to the sixteenth century. There Nora and Fionn seek the infamous pirate queen Granuaile - Grace O'Malley - the one woman who may be fierce enough to stop Queen Elizabeth I's tyranny over the Irish people.
But finding Granuaile is no easy feat, and securing her help is tougher still. Nora and Fionn face enemies at every turn, risking capture, separation, and even death in their quest to save Ireland and finally put an end to the centuries-long curse that torments Fionn. But as Nora's connection to Fionn grows stronger, her loyalties are tested: she may not be able to save both her country and the man she's grown to love.
In Jodi McIsaac's thrilling and heartbreaking sequel to Bury the Living, Nora will once again battle time, history, and her own intense desires in an attempt to rewrite the past - and to change the fate of all she holds dear.
Members Reviews:
A very awesome book cover
The God Aengus Óghad had cursed & taken Fionn mac Cumhaill (legendary warrior, aka Fionn OâHanlon) power from him until he could save Ireland from doom.
Nora OâReilly was of no help to him either as the Irish Civil War ravaged on.
Turlough OâMoore had heard Robert OâHanlon (wealthy merchant/adventurer) had been hung & died.
He seemed to be quite alive & well.
Dublin, Ireland. Nora (ex-Provo, Andersonstown) & Fionn needed to make a trip.
She would leave a note for Cormac (husband), & Katherine âKatâ (Cormacâs wife) telling them where the 2 had gone.
Captain Deane was mighty proud of the Barke Burre (ship).
With some reluctance, he agreed to transport Nora, Fionn & Bran (dog).
MacSweeney (quartermaster) greeted the 3 of them.
The ship & crew had been attacked by pirates.
Captain Deane had been hurt.
Nora treated his wound, but new infection would take its toll on him sooner/later.
The ship was going to make a pit stop at Cork (village) for major repairs to its hull.
4 other crew were buried at sea.
Eamon had given her a rosary long ago.
Pirate Queen Granuaile (aka Grace OâMalley) is in Clew Bay (County Mayo)
She is the only 1 who can help them save Ireland.
There 1st. stop was Duntonâs Tavern.
Big mistake. She was taken into custody & charge with treason.
Nora would have to see Donough OâBrien (Earl of Thomond), at the Doonbeg Castle for his decision.
Nora, Fionn & Bran were now aboard the Queen Medb (boat).
The storm quickly came/went.
Fionn had vanished.
Upon landing Sir âRedâ Hugh OâDonnell (Lord of Tyrconnell), Lady Tyrconnell wife), & Iníon Dubh (Dark Daughter), welcomed Nora to Donegal Castle.
Later âRed Hughâ was taken hostage.
I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review. Only an honest one.
A very awesome book cover, great font & writing style. A very well written historical fiction paranormal book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment.
