Cait Saunders is burned out by work and feels betrayed by her best friend. And her mother, Victoria, has just told her that her father didn’t die before her birth – he left.

Seeking refuge from it all in the garden of her childhood home, Cait grasps the hand of a half-hidden sculpture – and stumbles through a portal.

On the other side is a parallel world that diverged from her own 200 years ago: a London ruled by a repressive matriarchal regime, a North Atlantic island kingdom fighting for its independence, a charming stable-hand she didn't expect…

…and the father she has spent her whole life believing was dead.

When Victoria discovers where her daughter has gone, she travels through the portal herself, ready to find Cait and cross paths with the man who abandoned her all those years ago.

But what both mother and daughter may end up finding – and confronting – in this world is their true selves.

Through Mist and Stone is a captivating, original novel, with a mother and daughter caught in a parallel world, in a story of loss, love and rediscovery.
