Evelyn Arslan

On a windswept coast, not far from Lindisfarne, a small Celtic community have found security. Did the gods lead them there?

A dying grandmother struggles to recite their tale, which is then seen through the eyes of younger characters.

In an interesting, and often moving way, the reader is shown their world as traditional allegiances are torn apart by the onset of Christianity throughout the region.

A dramatic tale set against a dramatic setting: a beautiful but dangerous coast-line where the first Viking raid takes place.
In modern times, it seems that an ancient prophecy is being fulfilled.
