It began with an idea on a train from Inverness to Edinburgh in 2016 and I’ve been writing ever since.

Virago: Origins of the Once and Future King

As a last resort to improve her dissertation, graduate student and black belt Vivienne Rousseau takes the advice of her elusive mentor and reluctantly heads to the estate museum of Mark Twain. Little does she know that this Saturday excursion turns into a chase across his lawn…and centuries back into the dark ages of splintered Britain.

Ab urbe condita anno viginiti duodecim…The year from our founded city twelve and twenty-two…known by history as 469 AD under the Roman Empire.

To survive, she heeds at the mercy of the warlord, Riothamus, and accrues unlikely friendships among his ranks and a lone wolf. From scholar to soldier, she uses her intellect and combative skill to forge a new role ruled by men. There she is given a new name: Virago.

Through inexplicable forces, she must adapt to an illusive time of rural law, primeval customs, and violence to find answers. Conflicted if she will ever return to the future, Virago will soon realize she has been here before, but, more importantly, will play a part in sealing the destiny of a man who inspired a legend…and create her own.
