One hot day in Elizabethan York, young Nell Appleby is trapped in a wooden chest, and a horror of the stifling dark -- and of the man who trapped her - dogs her for the rest of her life. Wed to the sadistic Ralph Maskewe, Nell must find joy where she can, until the return of her childhood sweetheart offers a chance of flight to the New World. Will Nell risk all to escape the dark at last? Four and a half centuries later, Tess and her small son Oscar move to York. Eager to start a new life, away from her overbearing and manipulative husband, Martin, Tess tries to put her marriage behind her. But time in York has a way of shifting strangely, and memories of a past that is not her own begin to surface with disturbing effect. Living two lives, torn between two worlds, Tess must unlock the secrets of the past before she can free herself -- and Nell --once and for all. 'This is a superbly haunting time-tripping story' Peterborough Telegraph 'It is set in Tudor York, which is a glorious evocative setting. And if you love history, romance and ghosts, you'll love this' Deborah Swift 'What a terrific novel. I really enjoyed it and became deeply involved in the lives of the two heroines' Elizabeth Buchan 'A brilliant and bristling spine-chiller' Pendle Today 'If you're the sort of person who chews fingernails when things get tense, I suggest, whilst reading this, you might want to consider mittens' The Book Bag 'All I can do is urge you to pick it up! ... Time's Echo is full of tension, drama, history, love, superstition, and it is a book that is so thrilling you won't be able to put it down! There is danger and tension throughout which had me on the edge of my seat. A great novel! Reading in the Sunshine 'York author Hartshorne weaves her own bit of magic with this bewitching tale' Northern Echo
