The Tattooed Queen

Sick at heart because her husband, Joachn, is captive on a slave ship bound for the New World, Miriam finds crossing the Great Ocean Sea, with its lack of privacy and vermin infested quarters, the least of her troubles. The crew suspect her of witchcraft. Alonso, her ghostly love, does what he can to help, but at a growing, personal cost. As for Joachn, his situation worsens when his ship is taken by pirates of the coast of Afrik. In hot pursuit, the Grand Inquisitor hunts them both, sailing for Xaymaca with a pet sorceress and voodoo sorcerer, who take their blood magic to a new diabolical level.

In this final book of The Tattooed Witch trilogy, Miriam, Joachn, and Alonso discover their destinies are larger than any of them could have dreamed. They also learn a deep truth - love though sacrificed, is never lost.
