The Betrayed

Echoes from the Past, Book 7

By: Irina Shapiro

Narrated by: Wendy Wolfson

Are some secrets worth dying for?

Ireland, 1588. Rafael de Silva washes ashore on an Irish beach after a catastrophic shipwreck, carrying only his secret Jewish faith and a golden hamsa. He is starving and desperate when he meets Aisling O’Rourke, a local chieftain’s niece, and experiences a blinding desire he has never felt before. But their love is impossible, and when Rafael’s precious hamsa is discovered, he faces a terrible choice: admit to a secret that could see him nailed to a cross or watch an innocent man die in his place.

Present day. The discovery of a hamsa amulet beside crucified remains near an Irish castle is a puzzle to Quinn Allenby until her psychic gift connects her to the artifact’s terrible history. But as she pieces together Rafael’s story, her twin sister’s arrival with devastating secrets forces Quinn to confront a painful truth: some betrayals span generations, and the past has a way of demanding payment from the living.

A haunting tale of religious persecution, forbidden love, and family secrets that echo through the centuries. The next addictive listen for fans of Diana Gabaldon, Susanna Kearsley, and Barbara Erskine.

History Major Approved

Reading straight from book seven to eight.

For all people who love to learn: History (not the book itself) needs a trigger warning. Violence, pain, and suffering are all human issues that we’ve experienced over and over, not just in the past but the present.

Wow...

I can't be the only one. When the narrator started that $#/d When they arrived at the cabin, I was about to throw my phone against the wall. I may or may not also be PMSing... buuut.... when she made those R's roolllllllllllllllllllllll.... I was getting angry. 😂 I'm so glad she stopped. Tragedy averted. love these books
