What is The Queen's Viper about?

Time heals all wounds. Except hers. Caught between immortal magic and human politics, will predatory Viper control the power surging within even as Queens of Britain try to control her? Magic realism and contemporary fantasy interweave with rich historical fantasy in Lesley Donaldson's grimdark genre-blending novel, inspired by Celtic mythology and fairy tales. Viper is a Blessed One, a Daoine Tor who feeds upon aeir, the life-magic of humans. In Tudor England, she meets Princess Elizabeth and learns of a mysterious amulet that stirs repressed memories. Viper elevates Elizabeth to the English throne to enhance the Kingdom's life-magic and find the amulet. The immortal seeks her kindred, only to encounter a malevolent enemy who imprisons her. Centuries later, Viper inexplicably emerges into 2012 London. She enlists the help of her Foundling, Mouse, and his eclectic cadre of human helpers, to overcome supernatural and man-made threats to her freedom as she seeks revenge upon her nemesis, Annys, and the descendants of the mortals who helped her...starting with Queen Elizabeth II.
