Bracan's Daughter - Paperback
by Michael Calabrese (Author)
Two Thousand years ago, the Druids of ancient Glastonbury forged a sword of power for their prince. The blade held curses for his enemies, and the pommel, a giant ruby held in a bronze falcon's claw, held their blessings. Armed with his sword, the prince defeats the Gael (Irish invaders), and the sword is taken apart and hidden to make the peace. To protect the pommel, the Druids of Glastonbury send their most talented child two thousand years into the future to hide the Stone in the Claw at Stonehenge for the one destined to find it. Gael Druids reject the peace and murder the prince. They want the sword for themselves. Denied their prize, they swear to search forever until it is theirs.
Janyce Bracan, the daughter of an English policeman, was born to find the Stone in the Claw, but she doesn't know it. She finds it. She loves it. She fears it. And she's running for her life as soon as it's hers. This is a story about faith, power, and vengeance, and those who've waited in silence for the return of the Stone in the Claw for centuries. Ancient hatreds play themselves out in modern times as the descendants of British and Irish Druids hunt for the stone and the girl who found it. Bracan's Daughter combines a tale of ancient magic with a 21st Century British police mystery as two worlds collide - tied together by faith, magic, and murder.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
