The Keepers of Hearts is a magical faerie story that mends broken hearts everywhere.

The Keepers of Hearts

Lighthouse for the Soul

First published in 2019, The Keepers of Hearts is an illustrated faerie story told in rhyme and song.

When young Jack’s father drowns in a storm at sea, Jack goes on a magical journey to find the sea faeries of Rock-a-Nore and mend his mother’s broken heart.

Illustrated by Claire Fletcher, and written by Raven Hurste, the proceeds from sales of The Keepers of Hearts and magic lantern performances support Raven in their work as a writer and soul midwife.

A soul midwife acts as a lighthouse for the soul, walking alongside people at end of life and other major life transitions.
