Inhaltsangabe

For some women, the greatest act of defiance is survival. Every five hundred years, west of the Pennine Mountains, the Beloved is born: a woman who will unite the hidden world that exists alongside our own. The Beloved has now come again; but this time she has been born on the wrong side of the mountains. Her fate is not peace – but blood. Dr Charlie Hart can't remember her past – but it refuses to forget her. Lonely, exhausted, and carrying a dark secret, Charlie finds unexpected sanctuary at Rowans Holt, an ancient house owned by brilliant recluse Sally Marshall. But when the manipulative Marcus Rosendale threatens to destroy everything, Charlie's dark secret awakens, and she learns the heart-rending cost true Magic demands. Woven with Northern mythology and complex female characters, A Blood Red Heart is a modern Gothic tale of two extraordinary families and a thousand years of feuding; a rich world of ancient Magic and modern conflicts, a world where survival is the greatest act of defiance. Perfect for readers of Deborah Harkness's All Souls Trilogy and Sarah Water's Gothic fiction – redolent with atmosphere, psychological depth, and Northern England's dark and blood-soaked history. A Blood Red Heart is the first book of the Blood Red Trilogy. The story continues in Books Two and Three.
