Description
It is the summer of 1100, and after seven long years away in Spain, Lassair is finally going home. Back to her beloved mentor Gurdyman. Back to her family. And back to young lawman Jack Chevestrier, who Lassair hopes still carries the same deep feelings for her as she does for him.
Before she can reunite with her loved ones, however, Lassair has a long-overdue task to perform. Old flame - and king's spy - Rollo Guiscard left her a chest before he died, and it is finally time for her to collect it. But the chest contains more than gold, and soon Lassair is caught up in a web of danger and deception that threatens not just her own life, but the lives of everyone she holds dear.
And this is not the only peril Lassair must face. For although she's left the south behind her forever, the south is not done with her yet . . .
Gripping, tense and moving, the last installment of the Aelf Fen series provides both a twisty and compelling historical murder mystery and a hugely satisfying end to Lassair's story, which began over a decade ago with OUT OF THE DAWN LIGHT.

This is the final book in the Author's Aelf Fen series and whilst it can be read as a standalone some background in previous events would benefit the reader
Lassair is finally returning home after years in Spain , hoping to reunite with her mentor Gurdyman and love , lawman Jack- is he still waiting for her ,?
But she first has the task of collecting the chest left to her by dead , former King's spy , Rollo Guiscard ,,,,,,,,, a chest that contains not just gold but secrets !
Murder soon follows Lassair's steps , will more follow ? ......... are the chest's secrets so dangerous or has her past in Spain followed her home ? who can she trust ? will she survive ? will her dreams and gift of healing and sight aid her ?
This book brings together all the strands from the previous books to a satisfactory conclusion - I enjoyed the mystical elements within these books which gave them a more paranormal twist than usual in historical murder mysteries
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own
