Evil stains the forests of ancient Germania. Crushed by the iron grip of the divine Augustus Caesar, Germania turns to the dark power of an ancient cult. Only the apostate Henna can stop its relentless march towards war, but to succeed she must overcome the legions, the tribes and her own broken family.
Her last ally, a crippled ex-slave named Felix. Her greatest threat, the immortal shadow that hides deep in the woods, waiting for us all.
The strange tale of Prof L.L Powell, whose study into the ‘nameless woman’ during the 70s has recently come to light.
Henna the Deceiver is a dark, historical thriller centered around a lost ancient cult. Maybe it existed, probably just another rabbit hole. It was written by Mark Cossey, whose previous book Trying made the Amazon top ten. He has worked as producer on some of the UK’s favorite TV shows, including Doctor Who and EastEnders.
