OverviewWhere does a man run to when he's hunted like a dog, he's lost everything worth living for and his heart is turned to ice? Anton and Anna Marie are thrown into the dark times of Henry III when England struggles towards civil war after the Magna Carta. They make a ruthless enemy - Sir Michael - who shows no mercy to anyone who stands in his way. And they possess his heart's desire. Hiding near a leper's hospice, discovery is an everyday threat as armies march, mobs riot and England sinks into chaos. Older now, and wiser, they struggle to cope with the challenges of life and love. When Anton saves a monk's life it seems his prayers have been answered. Instead he's forced into another world of deceit and secrecy. Accused of murder he flees from everything and everyone he loves until the grand and terrible climax. And the Divine Curse tempts them into the greatest wrong of all. This compelling page-turner set in medieval England will grip you, shake you and not let go.

Inspiration for 'The Divine Curse' came when friends discovered an ancient metal cross in their garden outside the walls of a Templar Citadel in Lot-et-Garonne, France. Why was it there? What did it mark? A grave? She wrote the first book in less than two months, inspired by the two main characters who jumped into her mind and wouldn't leave. Now others have joined them ...
