Goddess marked

Hanna Martine

"William Everard was once a man of the sea. Then a terrifying incident in Egypt at the turn of the nineteenth century cast him out of the English Royal Navy and made him question his sanity. After stumbling into a hidden cave in the Nile valley, visions consumed his mind and directed his every action. When they compel him to commit theft in 1819 London, he is sentenced to the New South Wales prison colony, half a world away. During a hellish fivemonth sea voyage, William is haunted by the face of a beautiful, troubled woman. He knows what he must do when he reaches Australia: Find the woman. End the visions. Regain control over his mind. But who is she? When Sera Oliver awakes in a desolate, sunbaked land, she has no memory but her name. No possessions except the gold band with curious Egyptian symbols clamped around her arm. She is reluctant to trust William, or anyone in this cruel, unfamiliar time and place, until an ancient enemy crosses continents and centuries to hunt her, and she must turn to William for answers, for life, and for love"Amazon.com
