Four Winds: Book 1 of the Winds Series

In her search for answers as well as a reason to live after the deaths of her husband and son in a great fire, Veronica Vergara Eranda stumbles upon a gruesome discovery - a jar that contains the skeletal remains of a woman. Suspecting the woman to be the legendary ancestor who disappeared on the day of her betrothal, Veronica delves into her family’s past and comes across a series of mystifying events that ends with her inheriting the journals of her grandaunt, the reluctant guardian of family secrets. The journals tell of an old curse - the Four Winds - that befell the illustrious Vergara family a century past. As Veronica uncovers its dark truth, she ultimately discovers that the deaths of her loved ones are inextricably linked to the woman in the jar. Set in the exotic and ancient city of Manila in the early 18th century, Four Winds chronicles the history of a family during the Spanish colonial time. It recounts nightmarish arranged marriage, tenacious friendships of three generations of women with their loyal servants, and courageous children paying for the sins of their father. Narrated in the form of a letter, Four Winds is a tale of love, lust, betrayals, and deaths, steeped in mystery and the occult.
