HarperCollins, 2021

A story spanning centuries. A long awaited revenge. In London, journalist Jo Clifford plans to debunk the belief in past-lives in a hard-hitting magazine piece. But her scepticism is shaken when a hypnotist forces her to relive the experiences of Matilda, Lady of Hay, a noblewoman during the reign of King John. She learns of Matilda's unhappy marriage, her love for the handsome Richard de Clare, and the brutal death threats handed out by King John, before it becomes clear that Jo’s past and present are inevitably entwined. She realises that eight hundred years on, Matilda’s story of secret passion and unspeakable treachery is about to repeat itself… Barbara Erskine’s iconic debut novel still delights generations of readers thirty years after its first publication. Readers LOVE Barbara Erskine: ‘Atmospheric’ ????? ‘Enthralling’ ????? ‘Spellbinding’ ????? ‘Another fabulous read from the mistress of the genre’ ????? ‘Immensely and deeply immersive fiction’ ????? ‘I loved every minute’ ????? ‘An exceptional writer of great books’ ????? ‘You can rely on this author to keep you wanting more’ ????? ‘A joy to read’ ????? ‘Captivating and engrossing’ ????? Erskine, the Sunday Times bestselling author, masterfully weaves a tale of suspense and romance, set against a rich historical backdrop. The story, an alternative to typical mediaeval thrillers, is a top pick for lovers of history and mythology. For fans of Christina Courtenay (Legacy of the Runes), Elena Collins (The Lady of the Loch), Lucinda Riley (The Seven Sisters), Kate Mosse (The Map of Bones), and Elizabeth Chadwick (The Royal Rebel).
