THE CRIMSON SEER
S. L. Payne
The Sight does not lie. But it can be tinted by the heart.
Scotland, 1318. In the restless aftermath of the Battle of Bannockburn, the Highlands are a land of fragile loyalties and ancient secrets. At Dunrath Keep, Aisling MacCorra lives in the shadows of the great hall, carrying a gift that is both her shield and her burden. As a bean-fhiosach-a knowing woman-she sees what others cannot: the weight of consequence, the motion of the future, and the unnameable colors of the soul.
For six years, Aisling has made herself indispensable to a Chief who values her only for her utility. She has built her life on a foundation of deliberate composure, guarding her heart against a world that has already taken too much. But when Cormac of Dunrath returns from the eastern border, the visions change.
