Summary

Young Magdalen and Jesus, brimming with youthful charm and arrogance, find each other and fall in love, forging a bond that is stronger than death. Their pleasure is overshadowed by a brilliant but unbalanced druid who knows a perilous secret about Maeve's past. The prequel to The Passion of Mary Magdalen.

Thoroughly amazing. Purely joyous, mischievous & so funny. As a rebellious redhead, I really recognised myself growing up. I loved the feminine take, it shows how free we could be without the interference of formal religion ruled by men! A master storyteller indeed, beautifully read. I'm straight on to the next!

Vivid & full of fun & life!
