Painting the Blues in Gretna Green
My powers are growing, and my tolerance is low. My second week in my new role as the Gretna Green Recorder is making the first week look relaxing.
I have quite the to-do list.
✅ Fix a thousand-year-old injustice that threatens the future of the Pictish royal family and their realm? Check.
✅ Test my new Knight Adjutant candidates? Check.
✅ Discover one of those candidates is the guy I had a huge crush on when I was twelve? Oh yeah. Check.
❌ Feed the cat? No, she's not hungry—which is worrying, very worrying.
❓ Prevent a bloodbath? Let's freaking hope so.
Niki McKnight is settling in as the new Recorder in the Gretna Gateway in Scotland. She's joined by the usual colourful cast of Celtic, Fae and animal characters and some new Pict ones.
Magic, psychic powers, a cat goddess, lots of coffee and making her gran proud by reminding everyone that kings and queens are ten-a-penny in the seven realms, but there is ONLY one Recorder.
Painting the Blues in Gretna Green is perfect for readers who’d enjoy an uplifting story with cozy paranormal fantasy elements. Set in a sentient Scottish house with a woman who wants to use the voice she discovered she had and wield her increased powers.
