Synopsis

Life in the Colony of Maryland is no sinecure—as Alex and Matthew Graham well know. But nothing in their previous life has prepared them for the mayhem that is about to be unleashed upon them.Being labeled a witch is not a good thing in 1684, so it is no wonder Alex Graham is aghast at having such insinuations thrown at her. Even worse, it’s Matthew’s brother-in-law, Simon Melville, who points finger at her.Not that the ensuing hearing is her main concern, because nowadays Alex’s entire life is tainted by the fear of what Philip Burley will do to them once he gets hold of them. On a sunny May afternoon, Philip finally achieves his aim and over the course of the coming days Alex sees her whole life unraveling, leaving her family permanently maimed. As if all this wasn’t enough, Alex also has to cope with the loss of one of her sons. Forcibly adopted by the former Susquehannock, Samuel is dragged from Alex’s arms to begin a new life in the wilderness.How is Alex to survive all this? And will she be able to put her damaged family back together?Revenge and Retribution is the sixth book in Anna Belfrage’s time slip series featuring time traveler Alexandra Lind and her seventeenth-century husband, Matthew Graham.

About Anna Belfrage

Her latest series is set in the 1320s and features Adam de Guirande, his wife Kit, and their adventures during Roger Mortimer’s rise to power.

Goodreads review by M. on November 23, 2016

This book for me was a mixed bag. It provided the feels (it made me cry a few times), but then it was always engrossing. At times it felt the author was thinking on how to one up the Outlander plot points. Along the books I’ve read so far a few promising ideas came about but were not explored, like......more

Goodreads review by Mary on December 12, 2019

"Go and ask her, ask Alex Graham where those witch things come from..." Matthew Graham had not expected his brother-in-law to accuse his wife, Alex, of witchcraft. After everything they had been through together, it was nigh on impossible to comprehend such a betrayal. But words, when spoken, cannot......more

Goodreads review by Amy (Lost in a Good Book) on February 05, 2017

Note: I was provided a copy of this book for review. I definitely thought I was at a disadvantage when reading this book by not realising it was the sixth in the series, but Belfrage writes in such a way that if you pay close attention you do get told the key moments in their story that you have miss......more
