The Sea Stone Sisters (2026)
(Sea Stone Sisters, book 1)
Eleanor Buchanan
"An enchanting, edge-of-your-seat tale! Told against the stunning backdrops of the wild Scottish west coast, 1930s Ceylon and the Australian outback, the author's detailed research vividly brings it all to life. The reader is caught up in a web of intrigue, danger and mystery that ultimately leads both Iris and Roz to their destiny. And while their journeys end, the reader is left eager to find out what happened to the other three sisters ... I would highly recommend this to fans of dual time stories - it's wonderful and not to be missed!"
