In the shadowy reign of King Henry VIII, British Catholics faced dark times as their faith was suppressed and religious houses were shuttered, largely due to the influence of the despised Thomas Cromwell. Amidst this turmoil, the ancient shrine at Walsingham, dedicated to Our Lady and a beacon of miracles and pilgrimage, remained a source of hope. On a remote farm, siblings Jemmy Reynolds and his sister Joan, yearning for their long-promised pilgrimage to Walsingham, finally set out on their adventure. Their biggest challenge? To find a worthy offering for Our Lady, leading Joan to the brilliant idea of a magnificent candle. Their journey unfolds into a thrilling tale, bringing Jem face-to-face with the cunning Cromwell and King Henry himself. Encountering a mysterious stranger along the way and making daring attempts to rescue a friend from Cromwell’s clutches, Jems quest is filled with excitement and peril. This captivating story weaves true historical events into a rich tapestry of the struggles endured by English Catholics during a time defined by cruelty and greed. (Summary adapted from original jacket.)
