Blood and Water

In the fantastical realm of the Otherworld, eighteen-year-old Ava emerges from a river, nearly dead; she then embarks on a journey to find her way back to a home she barely remembers, joined by two tricksters: Bodach and Reynard the fox. The path is perilous as Ava is hunted by malevolent sídhe, and death seemingly waits around every corner for her.

Meanwhile, it's 1991 when seventeen-year-old Callie Roth arrives in Scotland, from Oregon, to live with her maternal aunt Sarah after both of her parents died in a car crash. Isolated from her best friend and her former home, Callie must navigate her grief in a foreign land where new obstacles and friendships await her. With her first steps in Scotland, she is already set on the path that will test her resilience and push her into self-discovery despite her shattered heart.

The paths of Blood and Water converge in this transformative and deeply personal journey through grief.
