CATHY M. DONNELLY
A Druid.
A Templar.
The woman who loved them both.
My fascination with the Knights Templars, the Druids, and reincarnation, led me to write this novel.
I enjoyed every minute of researching for this.
It was a warm summer's day when I visited the island of Inchmahome on the Lake of Menteith. The only sounds were the lapping of water against the shore and the birds singing in the trees. As I explored the ruins of the 13th century priory, I thought how magical this place was. I decided to find out more about Inchmahome’s part in Scotland's history and weave a story around it.
I wanted to write a story that incorporated two subjects that are of great interest to me - history and reincarnation.

The ending of Rachel's story came to me first and all that was left to do was reach it.
