Black Doe

A Black Doe assassin on the trail of a warlord is stabbed with her own weapon and crucified.

A mother with the blood of the Pictish founder god Cruithne hopes that her son may one day become the chieftain of the Fidach tribe.

For each the goal is clear, and for each the end uncertain.

Bloodshed, tragedy, and the supernatural abound. 

Black Doe will sit comfortably on the fantasy-lover’s shelf alongside recent authors Anna Smith Spark and Anna Stephens – and with Adrian Tchaikovsky’s award-winning Echoes of the Fall series. Its historical side is scrupulously researched and would also appeal to readers who enjoy historical fiction by authors such as Conn Iggulden and Christian Cameron – and readers of their recent fantasy novels.
