The Soul Stone: A brutal raid on a 10th century abbey in Ireland leads to a multi-layered magical confrontation

​

When a remote Irish abbey is besieged by ruthless Norse raiders, Brother Garbhán reluctantly agrees to protect its most holy relic, and take it to safety. The Soul Stone is said to give visions of heaven and the raiders are commanded to seize it at all costs, on pain of death.

Aoife, her family slaughtered, seeks vengeance. Forthright, caustic, and possessing an unnerving affinity with animals, she has made other formidable enemies who are hot on her trail.

Forced together by circumstance, devout monk and wild outsider find themselves hunted and harried, drawn ever nearer to a confrontation with their pursuers. But in this slippery tale where nothing is quite what it seems, fate (or something like fate) may have its own mysterious agenda ...

​

A prequel to The Bear of Pichesham, this mystical adventure blurs the line between the real and the fantastical.
