Harry Gilmore has no idea of the terrible danger he faces when he
meets a beautiful girl in a local student bar. Drugged and
abducted, Harry wakes up in a secure wooden compound deep in the
Welsh countryside, where he is groomed by the leaders of a
manipulative cult, run by the self-proclaimed new messiah known as
The Master. When the true nature of the cult becomes apparent,
Harry looks for any opportunity to escape. But as time passes, he
questions if The Master's extreme behavior and teachings are the
one true religion. With Harry's life hanging by a thread, a team of
officers, led by Detective Inspector Laura Kesey, investigate his
disappearance. But will they find him before it's too late?

Louise DouglasA tale as old as time. A spirit that has never
rested.Present day As a love affair comes to an end, and with it
her dreams for her future, artist Selena needs a retreat. The
picture-postcard Sloe Cottage in the Somerset village of Ashcombe
promises to be the perfect place to forget her problems, and Selena
settles into her new home as spring arrives. But it isn't long
before Selena hears the past whispering to her. Sloe Cottage is
keeping secrets which refuse to stay hidden. 1682 Grace Cotter
longs for nothing more than a husband and family of her own.
Content enough with her work on the farm, looking after her father,
and learning the secrets of her grandmother Bett's healing hands,
nevertheless Grace still hopes for love. But these are dangerous
times for dreamers, and rumours and gossip can be deadly. One
mis-move and Grace's fate looks set... Separated by three hundred
years, two women are drawn together by a home bathed in blood and
magic. Grace Cotter's spirit needs to rest, and only Selena can
help her now. USA Today bestselling author Judy Leigh writing as
Elena Collins, brings you this unforgettable, heart-breaking,
gripping timeslip novel set in a world when women were hung as
witches, and fates could be sealed by a wrong word. Perfect for
fans of Barbara Erskine, Diana Gabaldon and Louise Douglas. Praise
for Elena Collins: 'A profoundly moving, beautifully written and
emotional story that skilfully combines two time frames into one
unputdownable book. I was completely immersed in Grace's story from
the beginning: despite it taking place 400 years ago. The modern
day storyline was also delightful with some wonderful characters.
In short a wonderful book by a fabulous author, very highly
recommended.' Louise Douglas
