*This robust, convincing portrait of the Elizabethan world with complex, rounded characters wraps an intriguingly plausible solution to the "lost colony" mystery inside a compelling love story of subtle thematic depth.

Klein deftly balances the romantic appeal with the grueling reality of survival, the lives of original inhabitants, and factual background of English colonization.

Klein's latest is a riveting, nuanced historical drama...[a] wrenching, richly told story.

A spellbinding tale of love, murder, and revenge.
