The Vanished Days is a prequel to The Winter Sea. It goes back in time to the 1680s and introduces the reader to the Moray and Graeme families. King James has been exiled and there is a new Union with England. In 1707, the French are preparing to launch an invasion to bring the young exiled Jacobite king back to Scotland to reclaim his throne.

EadieB Queen Anne's commissioners have begun paying out money sent up from London to settle the losses and wages owed to those Scots who took part in the disastrous Darien expedition eight years earlier. It was an ill-fated venture that left Scotland all but bankrupt. Lily Aitcheson comes forward to collect her husband's wages but her claim is challenged. 3y
EadieB Adam Williamson is assigned to investigate and to decide if she's telling the truth. The chapters switch back and forth from the 1680's and 1707. Kearsley has done excellent research. The surprise ending is an interesting plot twist. If you like historical tales of adventure, endurance, romance and hope, then you will enjoy this book. I would like to thank NetGalley and Sourcebooks Landmark for a free copy for an honest review. 3y

The cat was a tiny menace and couldn‘t sit still for very long which was distracting, but I did finish my book and it was so good. Susanna Kearsley is one of my favorite writers, I always buy her books when they come out.

Some houses seem to want to hold their secrets.

Bellewether is my favourite kind of book. I didn‘t want it to end! As Charley Van Hoek settles into her new job as curator of the Wilde House Museum, she learns of a long ago doomed romance between a French Canadian lieutenant, Jean-Phillipe de Sabran and Lydia Wilde.

Romance, war, and historical intrigue, Bellewether has it all!

This week I bought Winter Sea part 1 and part 2 by Susanna Kearsley on #booksale
Have you already read it? Is this historical fiction or historical romance? I'm not sure about this genre😊😮

Susanna is my favorite romance author! With historical and modern POVs, time travel, and romance that's just steamy enough without being over the top, these books ring all the bells for me. Love them!

annahenke @bigdamnbookgeek Be sure to read this one before Firebird, as it is an informal follow-up. The rest are all independent stories. 8y
booksandcats13 @annahenke thanks for the tip 😊. I'll make sure to start there 8y
