Book Review: Rebecca

As a member of the Netgalley review team, I am reviewing the book Rebecca by Barbour Publishing, Barbour Fiction.




You'll be transported to Roanoke's Lost Colony by reading this book:



Mato'aka is the daughter of a Powhatan chieftain and a woman of unknown descent. Initially, she regards the strange men from across the eastern waters as mere curiosity. After a while, though, she finds herself torn between fascination with one of their leaders and her own people's opinions and ways, becoming a pawn in their delicate and dangerous game of politics. Having shared the grief of a husband and baby daughter who have sadly passed away, she is drawn to a young Englishman, John Rolfe.




Is it possible for her to live among the English of Jamestown, accepting their ways and even changing her name? Could her destiny be linked to the Lost Colony of Roanoke?



Authenticity and vividness are hallmarks of Shannon McNear's portrayal of history.



I give Rebecca five out of five stars!



Happy Reading!
