A Little Briar Rose retelling woven through Welsh mythology.

Ffion, daughter of the Head of the Druid’s Order, arrives in Melthkior for Harri’s coronation; intelligent, perceptive, and deeply rooted in the old ways, she finds herself intrigued by a king-in-waiting whose vision for his kingdom stirs something she hadn’t anticipated. Arianrhod and Creiddylad intervene, setting in motion a fate neither of them could have foreseen.

Quiet and tender; the quality of spring light trying to break through something heavy. Good October reading.

Fifteen years ago Ellen Smith vanished from the woods near her small Welsh village. Never to be seen again.
Eight people were in the woods that night: eight splintered lives, eight people hiding a terrible secret. But who can remember the truth?
Now, EllenÂ’s best friend, Detective Ava Cole is all grown up back in the village where it all began, and everyone is asking the same question.
What really happened to Ellen?

The book is told from the point of view of Ava a New York detective who returns to her childhood welsh village upon learning about the terminal illness of her ex-husband. There is a lot going on in this book. It all centers around a group of friends who have known each other since childhood. They have a dark secret that they have concealed since their teen age years.
Gripping and creepy this is a claustrophobic thriller that never leaves Aberdyth.
The tension built throughout and I couldn't put it down until I finished it!
The plot has many twists and turns to keep the reader guessing.
I highly recommend this book.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for kindly providing me the eARC of this book.

Oooooh laaaaaa
I admit I was late discovering this LP. My early 20's but OMG! Once I did it blew my freaking ears off.

Not a duff tune among them. Forget the remakes and the dance remixes! Wrap your lugs around the original.


I'm not a big lover of Richard Burton, even though he comes from the same Welsh town as me but I have to say it wouldn't be the same without him.


If you've never heard it before, it's not just Eve of the War and Forever Autumn!

Garthowen (A Story Of A Welsh Homestead) by Allen Raine
This is a gentle story, written and based in the 1800's. It is about one family and their homestead and the people that they meet along the way. It is an interesting view back into what "Old" Wales might have been like, the scenery and the viewpoints. There is a love story within this book but it doesn't dominate.

If you like a gentle story and historical fiction, if you like Wales, then this story is for you.
