Lady Morgan surveys her life at Camelot: an unhappy marriage and a vengeful husband determined to keep their son from his queens clutches, a true love she cant be with, a jealous rival in magician Merlin who has the ear of Morgans half-brother King Arthur, and strange but wonderful powers of her own she is still exploring. As tensions rise within the castle, happiness seems an impossible dream until Morgan dares to break the shackles of expectation those around her insist upon. But this path to great joy comes at a terrible cost, and before long Morgan must understand its a price to be exacted in rich, red blood. Rising from the ashes of desperation, she emerges hard, crystalline and unforgiving - now she is Morgan Le Fay. And hate is in her heart...
'Brimming with betrayal, intrigue, and heartbreak,Le Fayshows us a woman determined to survive in a world bent on breaking her, and to become the agent of vengeance that came to help her.' Sharon Emmerichs, author of Shield Maiden
'Immersive, poignant and beautifully written, Le Fay is an exhilarating return to Morgans darklythrilling story. I cant wait for the final installment.' Carole Hailey, author of The Silence Project
'Simmers with romance and rage... A wonderful story of Arthurian legends come to life, grittily, vividly, magically... That ending has me yearning for Book 3!' Naomi Kelsey, author of The Burnings
'An utter delight. Keetch blends a deft and convincing historical vision of medieval chivalry and court life with dark and astonishing explorations of British folklore. This is a book sparked through with the gold of British magic; wild and wonderful, a true feminist vision of our oldest stories and sure to be a rising star of contemporary British fantasy.'Emma Hinds, author ofThe Knowing
'Keetch continues her resonant rehabilitation of the much maligned Morgan Le Fay... Its a vibrant retelling of an old myth, packed full of passion, politicking and heartbreak.' Daily Mail
