The Valley of Ravens
by Barbara Erskine
A gripping time-slip novel binding two women, centuries apart, by fate.
From the No.1 Sunday Times bestseller: In the present, Eve arrives in the cursed Valley of Ravens to restore a long-abandoned cottage known as The Witch's House. In Wales, 1260, a healer named Alys discovers Llewelyn, the last true Prince of Wales, wounded on the battlefield — and her vow to keep his final secret echoes through the centuries.
