A Celtic Knot: The Winterthur Chronicles

Mysticism overlays the endeavors of the Winterthur Preserve, as unseen forces from the outside continue their assault on the young Irishman in their midst, striving to claim his gifts for their own. Slowly, he makes the transition from his powers controlling him to him controlling them. What is the origin of this double-edged legacy-these premonitions and unsettling dreams of a distant past and a frightening future? A letter, long held in safekeeping, yields a clue to his background-not what he thought at all. Shattered at first, determination wells up in him to search out his true past. Astonishment and sorrow await him in the discovery, along with keys to his strange abilities. But how far will he take this newfound knowledge, knowing how it destroyed the sanity of another in his lineage? He is tempted to push the bounds of his body and mind as he experiments for answers-and the patience of those at Winterthur...threatening, too, the loss of the love of his life. What is the significance of this for Winterthur? Is it only a distraction from their larger Work, or tied somehow to its salvation-an integral piece of a larger puzzle, possibly with revelations that will guide it into the uncertain future? In the meantime, there is much stumbling ahead for the young Irishman as he comes to grips with his burgeoning powers, a process not without some dangerous fall-out-and a transgression that brings him and Gabriel DeWinter to blows....
