'...And many a weary heart shall sing. The Snowdrop bringeth Hope and Spring.'
(From the book Poetry of the Flowers by Mrs CM Kirtland 1800)
Hope is all Emmeline has.
Under rolling storm clouds and raging thunder, the gods unleash their wrath upon the earth. In the chaos of the countryside awash with rivulets, Alfie is felled by some unseen force. Through a winter of frost and shadow, Emmeline tends him by candlelight, guided by her grandmother's delicately penned tome of 'Herbal Remedies'.
As snowdrops begin to bloom, hope stirs - only to fade as Alfie slips away. Stolen from his one true love. Left alone with her grief and unfinished paintings, Emmeline struggles to imagine a future without her soulmate. Then, on the anniversary of his death something returns - drawn by a love too strong to be broken by the grave.
A tender, atmospheric short story of love, loss, and quiet magic. Set in a bygone age this book includes an A-Z of Herbal Remedies, enriched with herbal lore, poetry, and the whispered myths of the countryside.
