The Heron Legacy : A Novel

It has been seventeen years since Charles Fontaine last set foot in the beloved Ardennes forests of his youth. Too many restless memories¿too many ghosts. When he finally returns to sell the family's ancestral domain, he confronts not only his own unfulfilled dreams, but traces of a twelfth-century legend that still haunt the woods around the Fontaine property. Clues lead to a parchment relating the curious tale of a village seeress, whose music enchanted a nobleman preparing for crusade. With the help of a famous medievalist and an enigmatic woman from his youth, Charles draws ever closer to the truth of this tale and its stunning historical revelation. Suddenly the words of his cherished uncle blaze to life: "Sometimes you can actually feel the past breathing, lad¿even after nine centuries."
