The Eald is gone. The Cynn Cruors are in a race to find the Eald before word leaks out and all hell breaks loose. In the meantime, someone has taken his place, threatening to cause chaos within and outside the brotherhood - someone who has placed the Cynn Cruor women's lives in danger. With so much going on around them, cracks are starting to appear where love should have prevailed. Loyalties are tested and tragedy is the order of the day. What's more, Dac Valerian's decision to sleep with the enemy has someone from his past returning to haunt him. Will the Cynn Cruors and their women come out unscathed from this most dangerous mission yet? Or will this be the end for the Cynn Cruors?
Author

Isobelle Cate is a woman who wears different masks. Mother-writer, wife-professional, scholar-novelist. Currently living in Manchester, she has been drawn to the little known, the secret stories, about the people and the nations: the English, the Irish, the Scots, the Welsh, and those who are now part of these nations whatever their origins. Her vision and passion are fuelled by her interest and background in history and paradoxically, shaped by growing up in a clan steeped in lore, loyalty, and legend. Isobelle is intrigued by forces that simmer beneath the surface of these cultures, the hidden passions, unsaid desires, and yearnings unfulfilled.
