The Saxon Plague

For those of you who have been waiting impatiently to read more about Anya and Silvanus, I am excited to announce that my new historical novel, The Saxon Plague, has just been published. Set in Dark Age Britain, it is a powerful story of love and war, of vengeance, betrayal and loss and the eternal yearning for a place to belong.
