Description Kay Halefin has fled her life as professor of ancient languages to the North Coast of California.
But fate has other ideas..
When the tendrils of power, deceit and abduction reach Kay\'s grown kids, living in Boston and Paris, she tries to draw the line.
The haunting spell takes Kay to castle deeps, Druid groves, and gypsy encampments.
Now she\'s tied to an enigmatic and enticing bard, drawn by medieval powers and passion.
The university career she loved has fallen apart.
Behind it all is a force from beyond the medieval world she has discovered.
Young women are disappearing.
She is caught in a web of intrigue and danger that soon plagues her own grown children.
She encounters a mind-twisting mage, and becomes embroiled in a complex plot against the bard and healer she loves.
A Wanderer appears on the street where she works, bearing gifts.
She knows things she shouldn\'t know.
She is suddenly compelled to weave and goes in search of a loom and special fibers.
If she touches the silver Celtic knot - the only remaining evidence of her stepping across time into a thousand years in the past - she hears the people again speaking that ancient tongue.
When she finds herself back in her own time, she is obsessed by the world she briefly encountered that night.
She is mistaken for a woman of that time named Kyna.
A most enigmatic and attractive man, he leads her onto a hillside where people speak some ancient tongue unfamiliar to her despite her extensive knowledge of languages.
There, on her way home from a pagan meet-up, she encounters a medieval bard stepping out of an old oak.
Drummed out of Berkeley for her controversial approach to research, including shamanistic trance, she now works in enrollment at a raw food chef school in the rural town of Pomo Bluffs.
