Note: Originally published: 2022 Autumn, 1707. Old enemies from the Highlands to the Borders are finding common ground as they join to protest the new Union with England, the French are preparing to launch an invasion to carry the young exiled Jacobite king back to Scotland to reclaim his throne, and in Edinburgh the streets are filled with discontent and danger. Queen Anne's commissioners, seeking to calm the situation, have begun settling the losses and wages owed to those Scots who took part in the disastrous Darien expedition eight years earlier. When Lily, the young widow of a Darien sailor, comes forward to collect her husband's wages, her claim is challenged, and one of the men who's assigned to examine her has only days to decide if she's honest, or if his own feelings are making him blind to the truth, and if he's being used as a pawn in an even more treacherous game.

Note: Nicola Marter was born with a rare gift: when she touches an object, she sometimes sees images - glimpses of those who have owned it before. Her boss, Sebastian Karakazov, owner of the premier London gallery of Russian art and artifacts, is offered a small wooden carving, with the claim it was given to one of her ancestors by Empress Catherine. However, to Sebastian it's valueless. There's one problem, though. Nicola has held it and knows that the woman is telling the truth.
