    About this ebook

    A dark shadow has fallen in the valley of Uffern, land of proud men, distrustful of foreigners. Trees bleed, women give birth to snakes. These are the signs of the Dragon’s Curse, a terrible and shameful plague affecting those who stray from the path of the Mother Goddess, Aurora. Eileen, a priestess seeking redemption with herself and the Goddess, is happy to find the free-spirited mercenary Devon at her side, whose love she once had to give up in devotion to Aurora. But just at the crucial moment, on the brink of solving the mystery, the curse seems to take hold of Eileen: her powers wither like dry leaves, her enemies multiply. And those she thought would protect her prove to be her most deadly adversary.
