The Singing Swans — Alexandra Manners

A haunting blend of romance, mystery and ancient myth.

Meraud's innocent green eyes had seen too much for her tender years -- debauchery, cruelty and too little love in a glittering world of French finery. Then, when her wanton mother was murdered, a strange and somber man came to claim her as his daughter.

But her new life with him on the mysterious Isle of Skye seemed more like doom than salvation. In the bleak land known as the end of the world, witches chanted and banshees wailed. And, if the myths proved true, the singing swans would soon be heard, when the killing force that claimed her mother returned for her.
