The Colour of Hope

A miracle child is born with the power to restore colour and hope in the world – but danger is snapping at her heels

‘Why am I different?’
‘I don’t know, lassie. I wish I did. And I wish you didn’t have tae hide it.’

The Dominion is cursed. Years ago, the Emperor and his Necromancer stole all the colour from the world. Now they keep it for themselves, enjoying its life-giving power while everyone else must exist in cold shades of grey.

That is until a miracle baby is born – a little girl who lives in brilliant colour. But the child’s life is in danger from her first breath. Soon the Emperor’s murderous ripper dogs and black coats come hunting. A drifter mage, Sandy Burns, intervenes, hiding the wee miracle in the forest, raising her as his own. Rumour of ‘the rainbow child’ spreads, giving hope to those who had lost it … but bringing danger and adventure to Sandy and his daughter.
