Publisher Description
She was Maori, aged anywhere between three and five years old. Her dirty, matted hair hung past her shoulders, and her sweet, heart-shaped little face was filthy.
When Kitty Farrell is offered a trinket by a street urchin, her impulsive response will change both of their lives forever, and place an unexpected strain on her marriage. For the past four years, she has sailed the high seas on the trading vessel Katipo with Rian, her wild Irish adventurer, but when they return to the Bay of Islands in 1845, they find themselves in the midst of a bloody affray. their loyalties and their love are sorely tested, and Kitty's past comes back to haunt her when she encounters the bewitching child she names Amber. As the action swirls around them, Kitty and Rian must battle to be reunited as they fight for their lives and watch friends and enemies alike succumb to the madness of war and the fatal seduction of hatred.

Awesome. I was disappointed that it ended. I learned a lot about the history of NZ in that time period as well. Have loved all the books I have read by Deborah so far. I have all the other books loaded so looking forward to some great reading.

I am loving Deborah's stories, I was gifted Tamar by my mother and enjoyed it so much I couldn't wait to get into the second and third book in that trilogy. I understand that some of the details are fictional but a lot is real and because I'm a kiwi it has been a wonderful history lesson. I am so familiar with many of the locations and isi of the various regions, it has enlightened me and my interest in local history has been restored. Thank you Deborah.
