About this listen
Salka, the faerie Lady of the Lake, can't help but appear to Owain, a shepherd who has already captured her heart. He needs only to see her to fall deeply in love. But her father has one condition on their marriage: if Owain strikes her three times she must return to the Lake forever.
Despite their married bliss, Salka is not like the other inhabitants in this small village. Gossip turns against her and as prejudice and suspicion breed, Owain finds himself wishing his wife was more ordinary, that she tried harder to fit in, that she was less ... herself.
What is more of a strike than to question her very nature? The first heart-blow is struck. And now, desperately, their future lies in his hands . . .

'Simon does capture the tragedy of the story very well, as well as adding some lovely light touches.' (Buzz Magazine)
'A novel that takes a haunting Welsh myth and makes it ever more relevant.' (Leah Thaxton, publisher at Faber & Faber)
