Description
Come out, come out, wherever you are...
A fugitive from an evil
sorcerer, GILLY hides among shadows, tortured by memories of the family
she lost. Her twisted leg is both a hindrance and a reminder of her
tragic past. For twenty-three years, she disguises herself as an
eccentric goat herder and lives alone at the edge of an idyllic village.
Who would notice her here?
From a distance, she keeps a
maternal eye on her only remaining sister, ANNA. But in a moment of
crisis, her fantasy of safety is shattered. Her use of magic lifts the
veil and now she and Anna must flee again. The evil sorcerer, and the
malevolent King he serves, are on their scent.
A perilous
journey across unknown terrain with family, friends and strangers, leads
Gilly and Anna back to the beginning. To discover hidden secrets, earn
forgiveness for past discretions and perhaps even find enduring love. If
they manage to stay alive long enough.

This is a story of honour, love and light conquering all.
Gilly lives on the outskirts of Nadym when danger strikes her from her careful, lonely existence tending goats. She must save her sister who doesn’t know she’s her sister or that she’s been watching over her all of her life. On a journey that sees her amassing a small family of her own at last Gilly learns her true worth.
As the Defender of the Light the burden on her shoulders is not small and she must learn to let herself trust others to help her.
The relationship between Gilly and Tom develops slowly and surely with sweet moments becoming more frequent as she lets down her guard, ‘On impulse, she reached up and said against his lips, “I’m ready to remember how to love,” and kissed him.’ chapter 14
I was hooked from the first page. The writing is crisp and clear, the characters intriguing and the story addictive.
