about this book: Yolande is a beautiful, dark maiden - half English, half Ethiopian - who turns heads everywhere she goes, even in plague-stricken England in the fourteenth century. She is also a female exorcist who expels demons and helps the restless dead find peace. Geraint is a strolling player, a juggler, sometimes a thief. He is a fiery, passionate Welshman who will stand up to anything and to anyone.When these two meet and are powerfully attracted to each other, many obstacles come between them, especially the restless, angry dead.

The novel sees Yolande and Geraint involved in danger - physical as well as spiritual - as they fight human and paranormal enemies. As they do so, they gradually grow closer physically, too. As their story reaches a climax, can Yolande overcome her final trial? Will she and Geraint be happy?

'Dark Maiden' is a multi-cultural historical romance with paranormal elements - the beliefs common in the Middle Ages about beings such as vampires and ghosts.
