Something sinister is brewing in the south…
No one had believed war was finally coming. No man was mad enough to rise against the Laird of the South, a brutal leader no one dared to question unless they held a death wish.
After the vicious attacks that left no survivors and no clue about who might be behind them, Maisie and her father, Eanraig Ditka, arrive in the south, a land where the climate is as unforgiving as its people. Eanraig has accepted the invitation to the gathering that will end it all but has done so with caution.
As the future clan leader, Maisie feels it is her duty to be by her father’s side at all times, to be his eyes and his ears in this dangerous mission. Thanks to the upheaval, the matter of her marriage is finally forgotten, and romance is the last thing on her mind…until she happens upon Evander. The handsome stranger claims to be in town on account of his business as a blacksmith, but his eyes reveal there is much more to his visit than he would admit.
Now, behind closed doors, the chieftains and lairds play an even more dangerous game –the one of diplomacy– and Archie can see that forming an alliance to clear every one of suspicion will not be as simple as he thought. Swallowing his pride after Maisie’s rejection, Magnus faces new trouble in the south. When disaster hits again, he realizes he would rather lead a life in disgrace than live under constant terror.
Only one thing is certain: the attacks will only get bloodier and more lethal unless the gathering manages to put an end to them once and for all. But how can the clans form an alliance when enmity and suspicion have infiltrated a bond they once thought sacred?
Genre: Historical Romance
