Corre el año 1759 y Jamie Kinross ha decidido dejar Suecia e irse lo más lejos posible, a la India, para huir de su pasado. Allí inicia una nueva vida y se establece como comerciante de gemas. Pero los problemas llegan pronto: la familia de su mentor es secuestrada por el crimen organizado y él se pondrá en marcha para ayudarle a recuperarla, viajando hasta Surat y llevando consigo el talismán perdido de un rajá indio. Al llegar a la ciudad conocerá a Zarmina Miller, una viuda bella y rica, sí, pero también arrogante, a la que se conoce como «la viuda de hielo».

Brimming with romance, adventure and vivid historical detail, Christina Courtenay does for the Vikings what Diana Gabaldon's Outlander and Clanlans does for Scottish history. The long-awaited story of Ivar Thoresson, foster brother of Linnea and Madison Berger, is told in Promises of the Runes!

Storm Berger has never forgiven himself for his younger sister Madison's disappearance. Suspecting she's travelled back to the ninth century in the footsteps of other family members, Storm can only make sure she's safe by going after her. Raised unconventionally as her father's only child, Freydis has never been content to simply accept her fate. So, when she's promised in marriage to a tyrant, she's determined to find a way out of the arrangement. Help comes in the form of a mysterious and attractive stranger stranded on her island's shores: Storm.

Present Day. Finally escaping an abusive marriage, Caterina Rossi takes her three-year-old daughter and flees to Italy. There she's drawn to research scientist Connor, who needs her translation help for his work on volcanology. Together they visit the ruins of Pompeii and, standing where Mount Vesuvius unleashed its fire on the city centuries before, Cat begins to see startling visions. Visions that appear to come from the antique bracelet handed down through her family's generations.
