The Light of Lúnasa by Laura Foley

A Curse...

Confessing to her brother's death was always going to land Clíona Murphy in a mental institution. It wasn't possible after all, to move things with your mind.

Upon release, she quickly kills her next accidental victim-the mayor. Fleeing the scene of an entire town of bystanders, she stumbles into a portal to ancient Ireland-a place where she's not the only one with powers.

A Love...

Tried as a spy and stuck in this strange world, a warrior and protector of the people comes to her rescue; Caolann. When he's not wanting to stab her heart out, he's plotting ways to steal it. Doesn't he know she's not capable of love?

But perhaps he has another motive?

A Trial...

Struggling to stay alive, things get worse when she learns children are vanishing without a trace. The opportunity to find redemption for her brother's death is clear now; Enter the Tuatha Dé Danann's trials where a competitor's only defense is their sword and power. The prize of triumph is the granting of a single wish-find the children.

But first, she must embrace the darkness that killed her brother, or be left with more blood on her hands.

Powerless meets Throne of Glass in Laura Foley's The Light of Lunasa, an epic fantasy novel filled with magic, lore, a gripping mystery, and finding love after loss.
