Overview
'Heart-poundingly brutal, heart-poundingly romantic, this compelling mystery is utterly absorbing.' Amie Kaufman, New York Times bestselling author of The Isles of the Gods Recently dumped, heart-broken Ana struggles to put the past behind her on a post-graduation summer holiday. When a catastrophic earthquake hits, Ana and the other survivors emerge in a world they don't recognise, stumbling into a 14th century battle. The students flee and Ana is chased off a cliff by one of the soldiers, Leon, who is badly injured in the fall. Sparks fly between Ana and Leon: to survive, they need to rely on each other and as their trust grows, so does romance. Together they must endure a treacherous journey and find the legendary mystic everyone calls 'The Saint' who is said to have the power to send Ana home . . . until an unexpected twist changes everything. 'Full of thrills, humour, and more than a little heat, The Lost Saint is a rip-roaring time-slip fantasy by a master storyteller.' Rachael King, bestselling and award-winning author of The Grimmelings

Reviews
'An utterly absorbing story that transported me to another time and place - this is a wild ride, alongside a heroine with attitude. By turns heart-poundingly brutal and heart-poundingly romantic, filled with layer upon layer of compelling mystery, I raced through this book and now I'm demanding more.' Amie Kaufman, New York Times bestselling author of The Isles of the Gods 'Rachael Craw has storytelling in her DNA.' Amie Kaufman, New York Times bestselling co-author of Illuminae and These Broken Stars 'I devoured this thrilling time-slip world of ancient halls and beating hearts. It will leave you breathless and dreamy.' Lili Wilkinson, award-winning author of 20 books for children and young adults 'It's always a privilege to be invited into Rachael Craw's head. Her worlds are fantastical, yet immersive and believable; always thrilling, sometimes heartbreaking, with protagonists who are complicated and real. I adore a good portal fantasy and The Lost Saint is one for the ages!' Steph Matuku, author of YA novels Flight of the Fantail and Migration. 'Full of thrills, humour, and more than a little heat, The Lost Saint is a rip-roaring time-slip fantasy by a master storyteller.' Rachael King, best-selling and award-winning author of The Grimmelings
