“Deeply engaging, superlatively written, uniquely scripted, metaphysical novel showcasing a courageous and independent woman of yesteryear …will resonate with modern readers.” Midwest Book Review Five Stars
“An intriguing story… rife with political intrigue, danger.” In the Library Reviews
“A stand-alone book yet a necessary foundation for this wonderful series.” Love Romances Five Hearts
In Alison’s Legacy, Heathcotte creates immediate sympathy for Alison’s plight…Alison’s courage to remain independent is believable because she does not defy the social system—she cannot, not without causing her own death and that of her son’s and her mentor’s. Instead she finds creative ways to work around it. The concept of reincarnation is well woven into the story as part of an older form of spirituality. Powerful scenes fill this intriguing book, illustrating the lack of rights and unfair consequences for women of the era, just for having plain bad luck. Bardsong, the Journal for Celebrating the Celtic Spirit
