Legacy & Legend - Rb Frank

. .

Résumé :
Legend can harm. Legacy can protect.
>It is 1775. Ellie Goodliffe is fifteen, and content with the routine and security of her daily life in the American colony of Oyster Bay, New York. When Ellie's brother admits to disturbing an evil on a dare, she finds herself faced with a menacing legend and in the frightening position of making it right. She learns how an incident in 1666 sounds eerily familiar and how the curse of her family stretches as far back as 1479 England.

Part historical fiction and supernatural thriller, this suspenseful tale takes the reader on a journey through time, spanning 300 years and two continents. Church beliefs meld with pagan traditions and both must impart Ellie with the powers and strength to confront evil. But she is running out of time. Ellie must right the wrong before the end of Samhain night, her only opportunity when the veil lifts between the living and the dead. After that, it will be too late.

Can she end the evil that threatens all she loves? Is the power of faith and the belief in one's self enough?
Curses. Magic. Prayer.
Once believed to be Celtic lore, only strong faith and the long-forgotten Celtic beliefs are the hope of putting a tragic soul to rest....
