Historical | Fiction
In a time when Celtic druids roamed ancient Ireland, young
Sister Deirdre rushes to hunt down the brutal serial killer
targeting her beloved monastery.
Someone is killing the nuns of Ireland. The grisly discovery of an elderly sister of Saint Brigid’s
monastery strangled, bled dry, and thrown into a bog is just
the beginning. Soon a beautiful young nun is found
decapitated and hung from a barren tree. It doesn’t take
long before the members of the struggling monastic community
of Kildare realize that not only are the nuns being hunted
by a serial killer, but the murderer is preforming the
gruesome slayings in the manner of the ancient druid sacrifices. Set in the turmoil of sixth-century Ireland, where ruthless
tribal kings wage constant war for survival and the powerful
religious order of the druids is threatened by the
newly-arrived Christian church, the desperate task of
finding the killer falls to Sister Deirdre, a young women
torn between the world of the monastery and her own druidic
heritage. Unless Deirdre can find the killer before the
cycle of sacrifices is complete, more of her friends will
die, the monastery will face destruction, and the whole of
Ireland may be plunged into civil war.
