Ballad of River Bones is the conclusion of lyrical folklore fantasy and Indie Press Award Distinguished Favourite, Dissonance of Bird Song, ending the critically acclaimed tale of “love, loss and sacrifice.”
Cursed by ghosts of her victims and haunted by her past, Nessa searches for her lost sister. In the enchanted Myst, change is devastating. To survive, Nessa makes a pact with a mysterious druid to protect herself from the ghosts of those she has killed.
As the shadows draw long over ancient Cornwall, Nessa’s path leads her to a choice:
Save her sister and doom herself to a cursed life, or destroy the Myst and banish her sister to the sea.
About Alexandra Beaumont
Alexandra Beaumont is a British fantasy novelist with a passion for folklore, playing musical instruments and exploring the wilds of the UK. Alex is a LARPer, which means she spends a lot of time running around the forests of the UK dressed in silly fantasy costumes. She is the London event organiser for the British Fantasy Society, and has a regular folklore column in the British Fantasy Society Journal.
Specialising in gothic and folkloric literature, Alexandra’s lyrical books weave together myth, folklore, folk horror and intrigue. The first in the Myst Breath Cycle, Dissonance of Bird Song, is praised for being a “visceral and lyrical” page turner with “praiseworthy worldbuilding” and was named a Distinguished Favourite in the 2025 Independent Press Award
