In modern-day Washington, DC, Laura seems to have everything—a successful legal career, intelligence, and a loving partner. Yet crippling anxiety, fear of commitment, and an unexplained terror of water keep her life painfully incomplete. Desperate for answers, she turns to hypnotherapy—despite doubting it will work.

Instead, Laura is drawn into the vivid life of Clothilde, a noblewoman living along the Rhine in twelfth-century Germany. Through these haunting memories, Laura witnesses a world shaped by faith, music, and power—where visionary abbess Hildegard of Bingen inspires souls through divine music and mystical insight.

Clothilde’s life unfolds through love forbidden, brutal betrayal, and fierce resilience in a society ruled by crusades, superstition, and patriarchal authority. As Laura relives Clothilde’s triumphs and tragedies, the boundary between past and present begins to blur.

What begins as therapy becomes a spiritual journey—one that challenges everything Laura believes about destiny, love, and the nature of the soul.

Rich in historical detail and mystical philosophy, Feathers from the Flame is an evocative tale of reincarnation, healing, and the enduring power of love that transcends centuries.
