Girl with the Iona Stone

Eriska Fingal, born on the Scottish Isle of Iona, wears a knitted bracelet that holds a protective Iona stone found only on the Isle of Iona. Eriska believes in the powers of the stone and thinks that if she carries the stone with her, she will survive life’s struggles. The stone brings strength to Eriska as she rides the waves of life in the late 1700s. Her journeys carry her to European battles on land and sea and to what she believes are the safe shores of Nantucket and Virginia, where she discovers a secret linked to her past and a man fated to change her life forever.
