Destined to be Queen of Scotland.
Bound by blood to the Celtic gods.
Born in the year 1010, Gruoch is the daughter of an Irish princess and an heir to the throne of Scotland. As Boite's heir, her life should have been easy, but fate is fickle. Her father's untimely death left Gruoch's future uncertain and stained by a prophecy that she would avenge the line of Kenneth MacAlpin.
Gruoch soon finds herself whisked away to learn arcane craft at one of the last strongholds of the old Celtic gods in an increasingly Christian Scotland. But the Wyrd Sisters have marked Gruoch as one of their own, and these ancient women always get their way.
With King Malcolm plotting, the Wyrd Sisters interfering, and a raven-haired man she's never met haunting her dreams, Gruoch feels her fate is not her own. She knows she is duty-bound to wed a powerful lord, if not the King himself, but she cannot stop her heart when she meets Banquo, a gallant highlander, druid, and son of Lochaber.
If you love Outlander, don't miss this sweeping historical fantasy that shows us one woman struggling to escape her fate without blood on her hands.
