The Firebird : A story of love, sacrifice, courage and redemption

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Winter Sea and The Vanished Days

When a woman brings a small wooden carving into the art dealership, claiming it once belonged to a Russian Empress, Nicola Marter’s boss believes it is worthless. But Nicola has an unwanted, if rare, psychic gift. Holding 'The Firebird' in her hands, she knows this woman is telling the truth.

Compelled to uncover its true history, Nicola must put her own past behind her. She contacts an old flame who can access the past in a way no one else can. Together they can find the real story of 'The Firebird'…

Following history from Scotland, to Belgium and to St Petersburg, The Firebird is a sweeping story of love, sacrifice, courage and redemption. A journey that spans centuries and lifetimes to connect the past with the future.

Praise for Susanna Kearsley

‘Sometimes an author catches lightning in a bottle, and Susanna Kearsley has done just that’

New York Journal of Books

‘A deeply engaging romance and a compelling historical novel’

Bernard Cornwell, author of The Last Kingdom

‘Kearsley is nothing less than a magician weaving together the past and the present in yet another marvellous, genre-bending, romantic, mysterious and utterly unputdownable novel’

M J Rose, author of Seduction

‘Will stay with you long after you put it down. Her deft touch with historical intrigue is matched only by her delivery of a contemporary heroine who is as unique as she is memorable’

Deanna Raybourn, author of The Dark Enquiry

‘Fascinating, immersive and twisty – twists not only of plot, but of character and time’

Diana Gabaldon, author of the Outlander series
