The past crashes ruthlessly into the present in this gripping novel of betrayal. Rozas, a 15th century Secret Jew is tortured by the Inquisition - and linked, 500 years later, to four strangers in a Manhattan park.
Excerpt
This is a page-turner for readers who love quality, fast-paced fiction that merges mystery, drama, the past, and present in historically accurate settings.
Writing is my work and passion - and it's in every page of TREES CRY FOR RAIN. It took four years to research and write this book - including countless interviews, books from the 15th century and today; and trips to Spain, Portugal, Ibiza, New Mexico, Arizona, and my home town, New York City.
The characters and stories reach through time; they're your neighbors and your relatives; your friends and co-workers. They speak in voices we recognize - their stories are our stories.
Autumn 1940. Germany invades Britain. Newport is blitzed. Danny O’Shea’s house is bombed, his wife is killed. While taking his young son Adam to neutral Ireland, they witness an attack on a German convoy. The result is brutal.
Dublin 1941. A brutal murder. Mistaken identity. And barman Eamon Foley is running for his life.
Nine months later Foley is in a crowded pub, and his brother-in-law is shot dead.
