Inyo’s Ring – A Spanish Armada Shipwreck Survivor in Ireland One storm. One survivor. Two lives forever changed. When the mighty Spanish Armada shatters against the ruthless Irish coast in 1588, Inyo, a young Spanish sailor, washes ashore half-dead and wholly alone. He stumbles into a foreign land filled with perils. Inyo hides, haunted by the ghosts of the Armada and hunted by the English occupying forces. But Ireland is a land of ancient secrets, inhabited by fierce seafaring clans, and not everyone wants him dead. Among rebels, Inyo discovers a flame-haired ally, Finley, and the power of trust, friendship, loyalty, and love. A new life is being forged from the wreckage, but Inyo must choose: Vanish into the mist of history or join Finley and her clan as they fight for their freedom and their home. Epic, lyrical, and heart-pounding, Inyo's Ring is a tale of survival, defiance, and love in the shadow of empires at war and clans fighting for their freedom.
