In the mid-seventeenth century, an English village is exhausted by war and poverty. Then a stranger arrives to bring healing, to show that there is a more spiritual way to live, and to reawaken the prophecies of ancient legends. He is, of course, met with suspicion, prejudice and violence.
Sounds familiar?
Three and a half centuries later, the village is much changed - but not so human nature. The same intolerance of outsiders, and judgement of those who are 'different', is rife. So the stranger and his daughter are reborn, to heal division and show that our undying inner spirit will always lead the way through darkness.
This brilliant book is a truly inspirational story for our times, written in wonderful, lyrical language. A gripping narrative with a timeless spiritual message for us all.
