From the Back Cover:
Moving to remote Shetland has been unsettling enough for consultant surgeon Tora Hamilton, even before the gruesome discovery she makes one rain-drenched Sunday afternoon . . .
About the Author:
Deep in the peat soil of her field she is shocked to find the perfectly preserved body of a young woman, a gaping hole in her chest where her heart has been brutally removed.
Three rune marks etched into the woman’s skin bear an eerie resemblance to carvings Tora has seen all over the islands: in homes she has visited, even around a fireplace in her own cellar.
As she uncovers disturbing links to an ancient Shetland legend, the police, her smooth-talking boss and even her own husband are at pains to persuade her to leave well alone.
Is their concern genuine? Perhaps, for when terrifying threats start rolling in like the cold island mists, it seems someone wants Tora out of the picture once and for all.
Sacrifice will grip readers from start to finish. It is a bone-chilling, spellbinding début set on a deceptively beautiful island.
SHARON BOLTON grew up in Lancashire, England, and now lives near Oxford with her family. Sacrifice, her first novel, was inspired by her fascination with British folklore. Sharon Bolton was previously published as S.J. Bolton.
