A story for those who don’t yet believe in Fairies…
It is Autumn 1912, and young Harry Weston finds his 130-year-old grandparents dead in their chairs in their ancient manor house. Nearly a century later, his grandson sets out to unravel the mystery that dominated their lives – the peculiar disappearance of their beautiful sister Emma. All the evidence points towards the guilt of her lover, the poet Lord Byron, but slowly the old house begins to give up its secrets, and the trail leads somewhere far murkier and far more ancient than he has ever imagined.
A magical novel about Byron, Fairies and the mysteries of the English countryside by history author David Boyle, published by The Real Press.
