The Hector Passage
A Time-Slip Epic of Love, Memory, and the North Atlantic
When museum researcher Rowan MacInnis hears a Gaelic song at the Antigonish Highland Games, something inside her stirs-something older than memory. A carved wooden token arrives at the Maritime Museum with her name on it. A spiral symbol appears on an Oak Island timber. And a storm pulls her across centuries onto the deck of the Hector, the ship that carried the first Scottish settlers to Nova Scotia in 1773.
There she meets Ewan Forsyth, a carpenter with storm-grey eyes and a past as tangled as her own. As Rowan becomes woven into the lives of the settlers, she discovers that the spiral symbol follows the Forsyth lineage across generations-from the fall of Louisbourg to the Beaver Club of Montreal, from the Arctic ice to the deck of the Bluenose.
Each era leaves a message.
Each ancestor leaves a clue.
Each carving points to her.
Rowan is the Restorer-the one who walks between worlds, carrying memory forward. But the past is not hers to keep. And love, even across time, demands a price.
Sweeping, atmospheric, and deeply emotional, The Hector Passage is a Canadian epic that blends history, myth, and romance into a story about belonging, destiny, and the power of remembering who we are.
Perfect for readers of Susanna Kearsley, Diana Gabaldon, and Michael Crummey.
