¿A garment maker's daughter becomes an ice-cold killer stalked by her own doubts, grief, and guilt. Corelle's simple life becomes indistinguishable from her nightmares after a chance meeting with a woman who becomes her lover. A dark, violent history casts a shadow over their relationship, and Corelle is drawn down a path of death and self-loathing. Betrayed to the authorities, she makes a choice that will haunt her for the rest of her days. Corelle flees south, pursued by men who wish her dead, but fate does not release her from its grip. A rainy night brings a woman with a sinister connection to Corelle's past, one from whom unpalatable truths must be hidden. Inevitably, the two women's histories collide, portentous decisions are made, and Corelle's pursuers draw ever nearer. The Vermilion Ribbon is book one of The Vermilion Saga, a sapphic low fantasy series with sprinklings of other genres that add to its complexity.
