Description
When darkness descends upon Ulster, two sisters find their destinies irrevocably altered. Niamh faces the weight of duty through a strategic marriage meant to secure her family's future, while her gifted sister Liadan—blessed with the Sight and her mother's healing powers—is drawn into the dangerous, shadowy world of the Painted Man and his band of warriors. What begins as an unexpected encounter becomes a transformative journey that will test Liadan's courage, challenge her heart, and reshape everything she thought she knew about herself and her world. Juliet Marillier weaves a richly atmospheric tale of magic, duty, and forbidden connection set against the turbulent backdrop of ancient Ireland, where the line between light and shadow grows increasingly blurred.
