The Curse of Beauty and the Burden of Power

In eleventh-century Scotland, where ancient beliefs clash with emerging Christianity, a woman with unnaturally white hair and skin pale as moonlight arrives to marry the Thane of Glammis. This is Roscille, marked since birth as "death-touched" and "witch-kissed," traveling with an entourage of women because men cannot bear her unveiled gaze. Her father, Duke Wrybeard, has carefully crafted the fiction that she was cursed by a witch as an infant-better to be witch-cursed than a witch herself. As her convoy crosses dangerous territories, her identity shifts with each border: Lady Roscille in Breizh, Lady Rosele in Bretaigne, Lady Rosa to Norman lords. When she arrives at Glammis Castle, tragedy strikes immediately-her trusted handmaiden Hawise is found murdered in the gardens, her throat slit. This brutal welcome sets the tone for life in this harsh northern land. Roscille quickly learns that survival requires transformation. Having been raised to "abandon questions and instead find truth in whispers and glances," she applies these skills with increasing sophistication. What's striking about Roscille's situation is how her identity has been shaped by others' perceptions. Her father's political machinations turned her unusual appearance into a calculated advantage. Societal fear of female power transformed her natural attributes into supernatural threats. Yet within these constraints, we see the first glimmers of her determination to define herself on her own terms.
