House of Northern Lights

Liselle O. abandons an urban life and a failing marriage in Los Angeles to find refuge in the isolated Queen Charlotte Islands off the coast of northern British Columbia. Here she steps into an extraordinary world of Eagle, Raven, storytellers and shamans. But the Islands are a troubled place. Centuries of brutality have crated an undercurrent of anger and distrust in the tine First Nations community of Masset. Their struggle to overcome prejudice and regain control over their homeland complicates the deepening relationship between Liselle and a Haida artist caught between protecting his ancient heritage and a yearning for the modern world. When Liselle uncovers secrets long buried on the Islands, she is forced to confront the power of denial, and the challenge for all who must find common ground to survive.
