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.
