The Seeker Chronicles: Book 1

Sixteen-year-old Kat, child of a scandalous, disastrous marriage between a Hill woman and an Upslope man, rescues a Rigi man from the sea during the week of the Long Night Dance and begins to realize a person's value does not come from his background nor appearance.

The Seeker Chronicles: Book 2

Betsy James

What if initiation into womanhood means you must face a snarling bear? What if you fail?

Sixteen-year-old Kat has fled the tyrannical rule of her father and now lives among her mother's people: a society that is joyful and caring, but conformist and bound by superstition. She has spent a year dutifully preparing for her initiation rite. She is frightened and uncertain, yet only by completing the ritual can she be accepted into the circle of women.

And what will she do about Raím, the young blind man she is drawn to: so handsome and artistic... and so angry? And what of Nall, the man she left behind?

Listening at the Gate

The Seeker Chronicles: Book 3

Betsy James

In her father's village Kat is scorned for her fiery red hair, the legacy of her father's shameful marriage to a native woman. Her only true home is with Nall, a man who appeared to her from the depths of the sea, an outsider too.

Now a war is breaking out, and Kat's beloved brother, Dai, is taken prisoner. Kat realizes that the only way she can save him is to join Nall on a dangerous quest that will take them to the last boundary of all -- the Gate where the world was born. It is during this journey that Kat must confront not only the earthly battle that is tearing her world apart, but the struggle within herself and with the man she loves.
