      One of my favourite parts of this book is the map because it maps out the routes that all the female adventurers took. Each of the women went on their own adventures and through this book, I got to explore with them. Most of the time, the journeys we

      I write standalone family dramas, often with dual timelines. The furthest I’ve gone back to, up to now, has been the 1980s. But my eleventh novel, The Girl From Donegal, became a new departure for me, as it’s my first book with a historical strand. I

      Chapter One

      Shen stood at the rail of the ship and stared at The Island that was a dot in the distance. He had blue eyes and black hair, barely long enough to be tied back out of his way. His hands tightened on the rail as he thought of what The Island could mean to him. When he arrived there, he hoped to find the answers that would lead him to his family. The Island was where everything had begun. He didn’t remember the volcanic eruption that had turned the group of islands into the single island he sailed towards as he’d been not quite four when it had happened. All he knew was he was one of the survivors brought to the harbour town of Saripa a little over eleven years ago. Now he travelled Rimalis using the Battle Circuit as a way to earn money so he could search for his family.

      Thinking of his family made Shen reach for the medallion hanging from a leather cord at his neck. It was all he had from his past. All he knew about it was that the symbol was called the ‘Mark of Kings’. That and the fact he’d called himself Prince Shen were his only clues to his family. Since Rimalis hadn’t had royalty for seven centuries, they weren’t very helpful clues.

      Shen. Hey, Shen! Quit your daydreaming and practice with us, Lara, also an orphan of the volcanic eruption, called out. Her younger brother, Edwin, as well as their friend, Janek travelled with him.

      I don’t daydream. Shen let go of the medallion.

      Lara laughed. She had sharp green eyes and sandy blond hair pulled into a ponytail that bounced as she moved. Sure you do. You get a faraway look in your eyes, start rubbing that medallion of yours and we have to call your name for ages before you notice. That’s daydreaming.

      No it isn’t. I’m thinking of my next plan.

      Sure. Anyway, who cares what you call it. Come and practice. We’ll land late this afternoon and I want to win gold at The Island Arena. It might be a new Arena, but I’ve heard there’s some tough competition there. Lara grabbed hold of Shen’s hand, tugging him forward.

      Are the others practicing? Shen asked.

      Lara nodded. We’re waiting for you.

      Lara tugged Shen to the area where the captain had said they could
