Isolde Daughter of the Priest

Om Isolde Daughter of the Priest

Set in the 14th Century in the dramatic landscape of Holy Island and North Northumberland, the novel is based on a real historic person. Isolde, daughter of the priest, is excommunicated from the church with other members of her community of Lowyk for not paying the corn tithes to the monastery on Holy Island in 1353. The novel brings to life a girl who stands out from this distant time and deserves to be remembered. As a small child she crosses the dangerous sands at night that separate Holy Island from the mainland and somehow survives the incoming tide. Is this survival, as the church believes, 'miraculous', a sign Isolde is being protected for a special reason? It is a question of miracles. Cover design ©¿Abigail Edgar. Image of Isolde inspired by an angel in a stained glass window in the church of St John, Lowick.
