STONES OF WRATH
THE TWINS
​
Relic-hunting Nazis, an earthquake, danger on two fronts.
Professor of Archaeology, Mikkel Jacobsen thinks he has found peace after the terrors of WWI.
His escape from England to Buenos Aires with his new bride and a secret ancient artefact, is not as untroubled as he anticipates.
During a terrifying uprising his wife gives birth to twins, Christian and Ruby.
We now follow the adult twins as they separate during WWII—Christian to Denmark during the German occupation and Ruby to the Andes mountains as she searches for her missing father.
Hitler knows of the Kaiser’s search for the missing artefact and sends his spies in pursuit of the Professor. Meanwhile, Christian runs the gauntlet across Denmark and the sea to Sweden rescuing the Danish Jews.
This is the second in the series, ‘Stones of Wrath’, filled with fast-paced intrigue and menace. The reader learns of the miraculous escape of Denmark’s Jews in WWII and the fascinating legends of the pre-history megalith—‘El Enladrillado’ in Chile.

FROM THE HISTORICAL FICTION COMPANY
"In order to maintain authenticity, Ratcliffe has included several real-life historical individuals in the
story, with the magazine owner Edward Hudson being the most prominent. In my opinion, the inclusion enhanced the story's credibility and made it more enjoyable to read.The historical detail in this novel is outstanding. It genuinely felt like I had travelled back in time.
What makes this novel stand out from the rest is the spiritual story that runs alongside it. This novel
contains Christian miracles and angelic visions which gave me goosebumps on several occasions.
The author's understanding of scripture was evident, and the spiritual aspect of the novel was well
thought out. The story had multiple plot twists that kept me engaged and second-guessing the true
villain. Unforgettable is the only way to describe Stones of Wrath."
*****“Stones of Wrath” (Book 1, The Tapestry) by S.J. Ratcliffe receives five stars and the “Highly
