About this listen
Music is not bound by time.
Adeena Stuart and Katharine Carnegie were born nearly three centuries apart. Yet, their music and an ancient cello connect them to each other and to a man doomed to die in 1746 after the Battle of Culloden.
In book one of the Song for a Lost Kingdom series, Adeena receives an untitled musical score from her dying grandmother in Scotland. When the score is played on the oldest surviving cello ever made in the UK, the music connects Adeena directly to the past as Katharine struggles to find words to complete her symphonic tour-de-force in the midst of the Scottish uprising against Union with England.
But Adeena is not a scientist or historian. What she wants more than anything is to compose music and to join the National Arts Centre Orchestra in Ottawa. Just as she is about to realize her wish, she’s lifted away, out of her control, and immersed in her ancient family history. As she is buffeted back and forth between the worlds, she grows to want more of the past, even though the promise of her most yearned for dreams are coming true in 2018.
Not even her passionate boyfriend can keep her rooted in the present, especially when another man from the past falls for her and her music. Although unsure whether her time travel is a hallucination, she’s willing to steal a five million dollar cello to get back to the 1700’s.
Song for a Lost Kingdom: Book 1, begins a journey of discovery between two women who share the same musical soul and love for the same doomed man. Rich in history, romance, and paranormal science fiction, lose yourself in a story that will sweep you away in a mysterious time-slip adventure.

Slow and steady
struggled with this book partly because of the narrator and her accent when she's doing one. partly because it's slow to get going. I got to chapter 11 and nothing exciting had really happened.
I've only once given up on a book before, and I'm sad to say that this is my 2nd time.
The story in principle is a good one, I dont want to give away spoilers but the connection of one family member to another 300+ yes previous is intriguing. I just couldnt relax into the story with this narrator. she didnt make anything sound exciting even when the chapter or paragraph asked for it.
That let it down big time for me .
I may have to read the book instead of audible. then the voices can be how my mind thinks of them.
Dont let this stop you from giving it a try. Another listner no doubt will like it.
