The Devil on Her Tongue

The Devil on Her Tongue

From internationally best selling author Linda Holeman, a spellbinding story of loss, romance and betrayal set in 18th-century Portugal.

Diamantina is 13 when her father, a Dutch sailor who washed up on the Portuguese island of Porto Santo, abandons her and her African-born mother and sets off for the New World. Unbaptized, tainted by her mother's witchcraft and her foreign blood, the girl is an outcast who seems doomed in her struggle to survive. But Diamantina refuses to accept her destiny and vows to escape her circumstances and forge a life of her own, no matter the cost, leading to an odyssey of starvation and plenty, cruelty and love, disaster and triumph.
