A coming-of-age novel set in NORTHERN IRELAND
The Indelible Stain
This is the second book in the Esme Quentin genealogy mystery series
Esme Quentin’s arrival in north Devon is marred by the gruesome discovery of a fatally injured woman at the foot of Warren Cliff.
Troubled by the woman’s final words and curious about the photograph clutched in her hand, Esme follows a trail which leads back to the brutal penal history of 19th century England, and to the mystery of a Devon convict girl transported to Australia for her crime.
Soon it becomes clear that a legacy of hatred festering for generations in the ‘land beyond the seas’ now threatens to spill over on to Devon soil with devastating consequences.
