Psalm-Singer, Passionate Teacher, Pilgrim Adventurer “My daughter Olympia is my finest student!” Olympia Morata (1526–1555) is a girl far ahead of her time. A quick tongue and a ready pen are her mind’s tools to record her vivid thoughts, poetry, songs, and opinions. Appointed tutor to Duchess Renée’s children, her future is bright—when suddenly, evil rumors turn her world upside-down. In the midst of it all a young doctor comes courting. Will their love survive the danger waiting on the other side of the Alps?
