Descrição

From The New York Times bestselling author Paula Brackston comes an enchanting tale of love and magic that weaves a modern day heroine together with the ancient Celtic past

It has been one year since her husband’s sudden death and Tilda has moved to a secluded Welsh cottage to overcome her grief. She hoped her new home would end her visions of Mat’s death, but instead the lake seems to spark something dormant in her – a sensitivity, and a power of some sort. Animals are drawn to her, electricity shorts out when she’s near, and strangest of all, she sees a new vision; a boatful of ancient people approaching her across the lake.

On this same lake in Celtic times lives Seren, a witch. She is respected but feared, kept separate from the community for her strange looks. When a vision comes to her of the Prince in a nest of vipers she warns of betrayal from one of his own. Her loyal Prince believes her, but there are those in his inner circle who would blind him to the danger that lies in wait.

In her own time, Tilda’s grief begins to fades with her newfound powers and a fresh love. When she explores the lake’s ancient magic and her own she discovers Seren, the woman in her vision of the boat. Their two lives strangely mirror each other’s, suggesting a connection between the two women and their powers. As Tilda comes under threat from a dark power, one reminiscent of Seren’s prophecy, she must rely on Seren and ancient magic to protect the new life she has come to love.

I very much injoyed the Celtic myth deftly interwoven into the fabric of this story. And the witchyness--especially from the Shaman Seren. Tilda, one of the main characters, could have been much more multidimensional... there was a certain depth and well roundness lacking from her part in the story. I would have liked to really get to know the characters better. Hear more detail of their lives and thoughts and feelings and well as feel more of a authenticity to them. They were certainly believable but the jumping back and forth between time periods seemed to be more of the focus than fleshing out the characters. The insight into that ancient Celtic time period contrasted against modern day was fascinating and very welcome.
