{ "item_title" : "Kitty", "item_author" : [" Douglas McClarty "], "item_description" : "The river remembers. Long before maps divided the land, before kingdoms rose and fell, before the first church bell echoed across the valley, the River Bann flowed through the heart of Ulster, silent and unbroken. It carried the whispers of forgotten peoples, the laughter of children long turned to dust, the cries of battle, and the tears of those whose names have vanished from history.Water forgets nothing.On autumn mornings, when mist drifts low across its dark surface and the world seems suspended between night and day, there are those who still pause along its banks. They speak softly, as if afraid to disturb something ancient. Fishermen glance towards a lonely bend where the current slows. Walkers feel an unspoken sadness settle over them. Some say it is only imagination.Others know better.For more than four centuries, a name has lingered here like the echo of an unfinished prayer.Kitty O'Hanlon.Some believe she was a young woman whose heart was broken by love and war. Others say she became one with the river itself, forever searching the waters for the man she loved. Whether history remembers her accurately no longer matters. Legends survive because they hold a truth that facts alone cannot.But Kitty's story is far more than legend.It begins in an Ireland on the edge of transformation, where ancient Gaelic clans watched their world unravel beneath the relentless march of conquest and plantation. Neighbours became strangers. Old loyalties were swept aside by new laws, new faiths, and new masters. Amid that upheaval, two young people dared to dream that love might prove stronger than the forces pulling their world apart.History would test that dream. The River Bann watched it all.It watched hope blossom beside its quiet waters. It witnessed promises whispered beneath moonlit skies. It saw betrayal, sacrifice, and loss. And when all was over, it carried the memory onward, generation after generation, refusing to let the story disappear beneath the passing years.This is that story.A story where history and legend walk hand in hand. Where love confronts the tides of war. Where one young woman would become forever entwined with the river that has never ceased to remember.This is the story of Kitty of Coleraine.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/818/545/9798185457672_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "9.99", "online_price" : "9.99", "our_price" : "9.99", "club_price" : "9.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
