He gave her a gift. Using it could bring her madness.

Ireland, 1795. In the misty wilds of Donegal, where shadows dance and secrets whisper, Esme Doherty clings to her unwavering belief in the goodness of others. Amidst the hardships of a drunken father, a tormenting twin sister, and a struggling farm, this resilient girl refuses to let her spirit be crushed. But when her grandfather bestows upon her a magical brooch that grants her the ability to discern lies, her world takes a turn towards despair.

Yearning for nothing more than a family of her own amidst the encroaching darkness, Esme escapes with a trader to find solace in a tranquil village. Yet, as whispers of witchcraft taint the air and the cruel hand of fate causes her to suffer devastating miscarriages, she feels utterly powerless against the sinister schemes of her twisted sibling, who covets her magical legacy.

Will Esme rise above life's relentless onslaught before her malevolent twin destroys everything she loves?

The Truth Can Lead to Greater Pain

Legacy of Truth picks up the legend of the Druid Brooch by looking backwards in time (this is consistent throughout the series).Esme is a simple Irish peasant, with a failure for a father and a twin sibling (among her other siblings) who can only be called evil. Eithne and Esme are the yin and yang, with Esme kind, gentle, and a good soul.Her parents migrate to America, while Eithne marries for social elevation, while Esme falls for a Traveler. Life is hard and painful for her, especially as the brooch enhances her ability to see the truth, and through these disappointments and tragedies, Esme tries to endure.It is a story of a caring, sympathetic character who struggles both in her time (the life and expectations for women) and against the crises she faces.

Get out a whole box of tissues!!!

I have never heard such a sad story in my life and I hope to never read one that sad again !!! What's the use of it being fiction if you can't give the poor girl a happy ending . ICouldn't believe you couldn't write in happier circumstances.😥😭

Nice continuation of the first book.

Good, entertaining read. Seemed like a background book to get deeper understanding of the first in the series or a bridge to the third. Enjoyed the story.
