Upcoming Project

Janet’s newest project takes us deep into the past to the remarkable island of Ireland. It’s the story of valiant young Irish goldsmith Levaen, weaver of gold. Caught between imminent attack and her leader’s ban of all arms, she takes a perilous journey in search of a forbidden secret held by the Saltlanders, a people who would one day be called the Celts.

Irish back roads outside Levaen’s home village near today’s Rosscarbery.
The sacred stone circle of Levaen’s Golden Eagle Clan, now called Bohonagh Circle.
