From Brittany’s fog-shrouded forests to the elegant dark
heart of Paris’s royal court, one woman must challenge a
country’s destiny–and her own dangerous fate.
France, 1585. She is the youngest and most powerful of
the “Sisters of Faire Isle,” women known far and wide for
their extraordinary mystical abilities. Skilled in healing
and able to forecast the future of those around her, Miri
Cheney has returned to her ancestral home to take refuge
from a land devastated by civil war–and to grieve for her
family, driven to exile. But she cannot hide from the
formidable new power threatening to seize control of France
from the dread “Dark Queen,” Catherine de Medici–a
diabolical woman known only as the Silver Rose. Miri has no
choice but to turn to the one man she distrusts as much as
she desires: Simon Aristide, the charismatic witch-finder
who is now himself the hunted, and who has reluctantly made
an unholy pact with Catherine. Miri must defy throne and
family to save all that she loves most–and command a future
greater than she could ever imagine.
Vibrant with stunning historical detail, alive with
characters as richly passionate as they are compelling, The
Silver Rose is a sweeping, exquisitely wrought tale from a
mesmerizing storyteller.
