Tempest is driving home in a blinding snowstorm when she hits a lone man walking along the road in the Scottish Highlands. After a local doctor sees to his broken ankle she has no choice but to look after him and so she whisks him away to her isolated cottage.

Michael wakes to find himself in the home of the crazy woman who ran him over. He doesn’t know how he got there and stranger still is the odd symbols that cover part of the wall in the bedroom. Something certainly isn’t right and he intends to find out just what it is.

Tempest is the Ancient One… a witch of immense powers who is much sought after for her wisdom. Many years ago she had fallen in love with a warlock and though she had seen a spark of light in him it never materialized and so she had no choice but to lock him away in a spell to return at a future date.

The question… is Michael the warlock she once loved and if he is what will happen when he recalls the past and his powers return? Will evil or love triumph?
