On the Tors of Penmaenmawr North Wales, MERLIN's cursed incarcerated soul is in quest to return in the new millennium 2000. After centuries of waiting for the perfect host, the initiation of his purpose begins in 1956 when at birth CATHERINE EMRYS is re-embodied with the soul of Merlin's wife GWENDOLYN.
Catherine relays to us the memoirs of her labyrinthine parallel life of purposes, pledges and promises to both Merlin and her mortal love ADAM TINDELL. Her journey is plagued by malevolent spirits while protected by angels and guardians. Her life purpose is to free Merlin's soul, for which she must give of her own free will, her love, her soul, her body and ultimately her life.
