"A great read that's loaded with carefully researched detail, placing the reader at the northern most extreme of Roman Britannia in the first century."


A hollow triumph. A fruitless search. Complete fulfilment is too elusive.

AD 84 Caledonia. Seeking the spoils of war…


Enya searches for the young Garrigill warriors not seen since the battle between the Caledonian Allies and the mighty legions of Rome. Should Enya choose the trail that might lead northwards to her brother? Or should she seek definite proof that her cousin has been taken captive by the Romans? 


Nith goes with Enya on her perilous mission. Along the way, what has always been a foster-brother concern turns to feelings much more profound, but does she love him…or another warrior?  


General Agricola’s burning desire for a successful Roman Empire Invasion means conquering the whole island of Britannia. However, the valuable spoils of war, and a healthy slave count, are hard to come by. A deeply superstitious man, Agricola believes his goddess Fortuna has abandoned him –his emperor likewise.


Who gains success and satisfaction? Is it Agricola…or Enya and Nith?


The adventures of the Garrigill Clan continue…


“I love being back with these guys, and we get to see a glimpse of the original characters in this, but the focus is on Enya this time and on her search.” Curled Up With A Good Book - Blogger Reviewer
