As the daughter of a London physician in 1717, sixteen-year-old Tess Willoughby has seen her share of horrors and been to some of the city's shadiest quarters. But a simple trip through the chaos of a London marketplace takes a bizarre twist. Tess witnesses the murder of a renowned elderly seer and unwittingly becomes the mistress of the woman's prophetic spinner ring. Even worse, Tess's panic-stricken trip home leads her to discover a secret family history that shocks Tess to her core.Purchase at IndieBound, Amazon, The Book Depository
Unable to give up the bejeweled ring, Tess must embark on a treacherous voyage to the pirate-infested waters of the West Indies. Trapped on a merchant ship and unwillingly betrothed to the murderer who covets the power of her ring, Tess finds strength and comfort in the company of a handsome sailor, even though this growing temptation will most certainly jeopardize their lives. Even stranger, she soon realizes that even though her fiancé is ruthless, he alone can secure her safety throughout their perilous journey.
Thrust into a world she doesn't understand to fulfill a role she is only beginning to grasp, Tess questions everything she has believed up to now. Her only hope of saving those she loves is to accept her destiny. And yet, the strange influence of her spinner ring could change everything ...
Full of high seas action, dangerous magic, and a dash of romance, Quintspinner is a swashbuckling adventure that twists and turns with the fury of a hurricane.

Ooh, the cover designer earned his or her pay on this one.
Thanks, Stephen! I, too, love Quintspinner's cover! I picked out the image and the design team at iUniverse did their magic with the rest. :-)
It does look like quite the adventure! Congrats on the book and thanks for the info, can't wait to add it to my TBR list!
I love the idea of this book and look forward to reading it. Thank you for sharing. The cover is really beautiful, but I am glad for the information you shared today because that is what has made this so enticing.
Thank you all for stopping in! Sorry I'm behind on checking on comments, it was my birthday, and I partied a little too heartily (after a looooooooooong day at work)... :)
