Synopsis

The Outside World clamours at the wrought iron gates, while the evil alliance within Stonewylde threatens to destroy everything. With their new business and their relationship in tatters, Yul and Sylvie find their once-beautiful world has been desecrated by the dark forces.

But Stonewylde is as old as the hills themselves, and the landscape endures. Leveret has at last discovered her true calling and is determined to lead the community back into a golden age of magic and prosperity.

As the enchanting tale of Stonewylde draws to its end, Sylvie finally realises why she was brought here and Yul understands his true destiny. Whilst Leveret sees exactly what lies ahead for Stonewylde ...

This cult series is a magical tale of love, anger and loss - but also, finally, of triumph against all adversity.

About this title

Book Description:

In the dramatic conclusion to the Stonewylde series, the future of the community teeters on a cliff-edge.

From the Back Cover:

Disaster has struck. Is this the end for Stonewylde?

The community's golden age is over. Now, with their new business in tatters, Yul and Sylvie increasingly estranged and Clip making plans to leave for good, darkness has taken hold of Stonewylde.

There is a glimmer of light in the darkness. Leveret's affinity for magic and for healing is blossoming and, alongside it, so is Magpie's art, but as the community's woes grow these are small consolations. Magic is fading from their lives and as the Outside World becomes more important to their survival, so it seems the magic may not return.

Painful truths must be revealed, about past wrongs, old lies and ongoing deceits, if broken relationships are to be mended. There are poisons which have festered for too long, and unless they are healed - and soon - the damage may prove too great to ever recover from . . .
