Juliet Marillier continues the epic fantasy begun with The
Dark Mirror, which Interzone called: "A fascinating
evocation of life in Pictish England and an emotional
roller coaster of a story."
King Bridei is a man with a mission. His wish to unite his
kingdom seems almost within his grasp but there are forces
working to undo his dream. He sends Faolan, his most
trusted advisor (who is also a master assassin and
spymaster) out into the world to ferret out the truth of
who is friend and who is foe.
Along the way Faolan will uncover many truths. Some may
hold the key to Bridei's future. But more important, they
may unlock the secrets that Faolan has held deep within his
soul for decades.
And offer him the chance of redemption.
