The Herb Gatherers
All his life, Rafe has been haunted.

The tormented spirit of mysterious Alienor, a once beautiful young woman abandoned by her Crusader lover centuries ago, relentlessly follows him.

In ways that he has never understood Rafe is cursed by her powerful and obsessive love, which has endured across the ages, taunting him and visiting him in his dreams...

Who is Alienor?  What does she want?  And what lengths will she go to seek her revenge?

Yet Rafe is not the only one who is still suffering at the hands of Alienor's wrath and when he agrees to take part in a seance whilst of holiday in Crete, he receives a message that changes his life forever.

It leads him on a trail to the quiet Kent countryside and there, as if waiting for him, is Nell Gurney.

Her resemblance to Alienor is uncanny and he is instinctively drawn to her.

Initially oblivious to any growing danger, Nell and Rafe quickly become close, driven by a strange sensation that they already know each other.

But someone else intrudes upon them in a horrifying intimate manner and tries to hint that identity is no longer a matter of personal choice...

Beneath the cosy exterior of the cottage Nell shares with her father, there is a dark secret that has shaped the lives of the Gurney family for centuries.

As the forgotten story of a scorned woman comes to life, Nell and Rafe are mirrors for a force that has the power to destroy them.

When tragedy strikes, Rafe's friend Stephen and a bewitching, chilling exploration into the practise of exorcism is their only hope...
