Risking Honesty

Rate this book
Harrison is a messenger, a spy, his life a tangled web of lies. Seeking the truth he so desperately desires risks revealing secrets long buried.

Fans of Robin Hobb and Erin Morgenstern will love the third instalment in this gripping fantasy series that portrays the value of honesty and trust, loyalty and truth.

A spy and a healer,
One innocent and honest,
The other a scoundrel,
Denying his heritage.
Together, they must unravel
Tangled lies and deep secrets.
They must decide
If it is worth Risking Honesty...

A decade has passed since the events of Strengthening Spirit. Hope lives with Lowenna and Theo at Westfalls where they grow medicinal herbs for the healer priestesses. There, Hope meets Harrison.
Harrison is a man with many secrets. Even Harrison is not his birth name. He's not even really a man, as he can shift into the form of a hawk. He's accused of being a traitor, which he's not. Although he also wasn't the King's Watch officer that he was pretending to be.
Hope heals him, knowing that he is a shifter, a criminal, and then she too, is branded a traitor.
Together, they must uncover the true treachery which has infiltrated the King's Watch and spread out to the Pinnate Isles. The very Isles from which Harrison was exiled. But if he is to save Hope, his parents and his homeland, he will have to seek the truth in the most unlikely places. He must risk honesty to find the answers he needs.
Hope must decide if she will stand by his side or wonder if she ever really knew him at all.

I'm a writer of honest fantasy, genuine heroines and wellness wisdom.
I live in Northern Ireland with my husband and two Irish red setters.
I write every day, sitting at a sunny desk overlooking my wild garden. I enjoy long walks in the hills and by the coast, whilst conjuring dragons from the sky, questing for selkie in the sea, and conversing with fairies in the woods.
I write novels, short stories, flash fiction, and poetry, as well as non-fiction. My novels are clean fantasy adventures with strong female characters exploring life's deepest truths.
