In a few books, Jamie has explored locations in the world where alabaster can be found. Sisterhood of the Sword is the first book to mention that Nova Scotia, Canada, is one such location. A second is Doyle Dalton's Diary.

This is where I envisioned Dalton retiring after his adventures. Remember his diary that Jamie has had all this time?

Doyle Dalton has been talked "about" from practically page 1. Now at last, he has his say in his own book.

Dalton is one of the more complex characters in the series. It is why he was allowed a full book to tell his story.

Dalton was a controversial ancestor in his family, in part through his own fault. He was known as a liar and a braggart.

Here is a sample of the "voice" who will narrate this book. And his promise to tell the truth. Again, it is up to you to decide.

Doyle Dalton’s diary has been central to the storyline from its first mention in Tome of Tubal-Cain. 

Doyle Dalton's experiences, wherever the truth lies with him, are critical to the story arc of the series.

Buckle up! We are going to war with Doyle Dalton. The only question is will he tell the truth this time? What will that mean for Jamie?
