It is 1986. The world is sinking into the chill of Nuclear Winter. And an ancient evil—the Spanish Inquisition, with all of its horrors—once again stalks the earth. In the midst of this terror, a mysterious ancient violin captivates Joseph Davidson, drawing him 500 years back in time. Pursued by agents of the Inquisition, Joseph and his lover Rachel must solve the puzzle of his hidden heritage—and a secret prophecy to save their dying world. With their love in jeopardy, and their lives in deadly peril, the violin calls out its siren song, leading them on a dangerous quest across the globe—and back through time. In the spirit of Outlander by Diana Gabaldon, The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown and the film The Red Violin by Don McKellar, blended with a timeless romance . . . The violin Maker by Glenn J. Hill unravels puzzels within a compelling romantic mystery that spans centuries.
