"In 1920 Galway, amid the Irish War of Independence, the daughter of a British landlord becomes an apprentice jeweler to the descendent of the creator of the famed Claddagh ring. As the two learn to work together and see each other in a new light, they start to uncover the true meaning of love, loyalty, and friendship."--, Provided by publisher1920. Annabeth De Lacy's father is appointed landlord of Galway Parish in Ireland. Bored, she convinces her father to arrange an apprenticeship for her with the Jennings family, descendants of the creator of the famed Claddagh Ring. Stephen Jennings longs to do anything other than run his family's jewelry shop. He no longer believes in love and is weary of peddling the lies the Claddagh Ring promises. As the war for Irish independence gains strength, many locals resent the De Lacys and decide to display their displeasure. As events take a dangerous turn for Annabeth and her family, she and Stephen discover that bonds of friendship, love, and loyalty are only made stronger when put through the refiner's fire. -- adapted from back cover
