forever.Īlternate cover for this ISBN can be found here But as they get closer to the truth of their search, and the deadly game the Ironwoods are playing, treacherous forces threaten to separate Etta not only from Nicholas but from her path home. Together, Etta and Nicholas embark on a perilous journey across centuries and continents, piecing together clues left behind by the traveler who will do anything to keep the object out of the Ironwoods’ grasp. In order to protect her, he must ensure she brings it back to them-whether she wants to or not. Now the Ironwoods are searching for a stolen object of untold value, one they believe only Etta, Nicholas’ passenger, can find. But with the arrival of an unusual passenger on his ship comes the insistent pull of the past that he can’t escape and the family that won’t let him go so easily. Nicholas Carter is content with his life at sea, free from the Ironwoods-a powerful family in the colonies-and the servitude he’s known at their hands. And she’s inherited a legacy she knows nothing about from a family whose existence she’s never heard of.

Thrust into an unfamiliar world by a stranger with a dangerous agenda, Etta is certain of only one thing: she has traveled not just miles but years from home. In one devastating night, violin prodigy Etta Spencer loses everything she knows and loves. The transition from one place to another, across space and time. A brief section of music composed of a series of notes and flourishes.

Passenger by Alexandra Bracken
