Midwinterblood Award-winning

Brrr! Ramp up the midwinter chills. A darkly pagan love story: ritual, death and rebirth. Ever felt as if you’ve lived through another life? Been somewhere new that’s felt totally familiar? Clicked with a total stranger as if you’d always known them? Maybe you’re seeking a part of yourself that’s been lost to you. In 2073, on the remote island of Blessed, a man and a woman are ritually slain. Their deaths echo a moment ten centuries before, when, in the dark of the moon, a king was murdered and torn from his queen. Across the centuries, Eric and Merle seek to be reunited – living and dying seven times. Mother and son. Artist and child. Forbidden lovers. They’ll always find each other. But only the ultimate sacrifice will rekindle their true love…
