"A young woman's connection to antiques takes her on a magical adventure back to seventeenth century England where she is tasked with righting an injustice to save an innocent girl's life"--,Provided by publisher.

Xanthe and her mother Flora leave London behind for a fresh start, taking over an antique shop in the historic town of Marlborough. Xanthe has always had an affinity with some of the antiques she finds: touching them gives her a sense of the past they come from and the stories they hold. When she has an intense connection to a beautiful silver chatelaine, she is transported back to the seventeenth century. A ghost reveals the antique's origins, and tasks Xanthe with putting right the injustice in its story to save an innocent girl's life-- at the cost of Flora's life. Amid the turbulent days of 1605 Xanthe meets architect Samuel Appleby. He may be the person who can help her succeed-- and the reason she can't bring herself to leave. -- adapted from back cover
