 Life in the District is not as it seems. An intriguing family saga of Reincarnation, the Supernatural, Gypsy folklore, fantasy, mystery, and romance.

1740 AD. Mary Atkinson’s life is fading, and the ghost of the white wolf waits patiently as the frail lady re-lives the vision of Freydis, the Viking warrior of revenge. But the saga is ongoing, and the pulse of Freydis, intensifies as the inheritors of the runic ruing are entrapped.

1921 AD. Appleby Castle is awash with scandal, and Annie Burton flees to Bengal. She returns twenty years later with Amelia Atkinson, and the truth slowly unfolds. Helena, a psychic, and Pali, a Gypsy fortune-teller are reincarnate and share inconceivable visions of an ancient past. A white wolf, a full moon, and a mysterious floating island are ingredients that will shape their destiny.

Thomas Johnson, a young miner with ancestral links to Helena and Pali, gains possession of the runic ring and suffers misfortune. Life in the district is not as it seems.

The novel is set in the English Lake District, Whitehaven collieries, and London during the early reign of Queen Victoria and Albert and the winding down of the East India Company.
