Sent home to Ireland on a secret mission for King Bridei of
Fortriu, Faolan must first deliver the news of a brave warrior’s
death.Unexpectedly, Bndei’s chief assassin and spy also finds
hinself facing the demons of his family’s dark past. By the time
he tracks down the powerful Chhristian cleric who may be a threat
to Bridei’s pagan kingdom, Faolan has become responsible for a
child, a dog and Eile, a troubled, volatile young woman.
For Eile, the journey to Fortriu is difficult. Accustomed to
a life of deprivation and struggle, she finds herself facing an
unfamiliar world, full of new lessons. For her, the hardest
challenge of all will be learning to trust.
At Bridei’s court in White Hill disturbing news from the

chieftains to council. But after the disappearance of Bridei s
closest adviser and the tragic death of a young maid, the threat
posed by the encroaching influence of Christianity appears to be
the least of the dangers at hand...
