Synopsis

An action packed novel that weaves tales of love, betrayal and loyalty through a tapestry laced with overwhelming desire for fortune and power. Amazon reviewer

Filled with page-turning drama, strong and wily characters. I was surprised to read, in the epilogue, how many are based on actual historical figures. And, as was the case with the ruling caste, everybody is somebody's cousin. But that doesn't stop them betraying and murdering each other. Amazon reviewer

443 AD – Tara, Ireland.
“Be careful in your dealings with your uncles,” warns High King Niall, ruthless keeper of hostages, to his son, Maelon—a pagan Irish prince in a family where fratricide is tradition. Being the youngest of many sons is a dangerous position, especially when ambition runs deeper than blood.

When Maelon and his loyal wolfhound, Kira, are banished to his mother’s homeland in Wales to study for a Christian priesthood he loathes, his true faith in the Goddess Macha must remain a closely guarded secret: Even from his closest friend.

Maelon’s life is turned upside down when his father dies, plunging Ireland into chaos. His worst fears become reality as his sanctuary in Wales is destroyed, and he is forced to flee to the wild mountains—where he meets his captivating flame-haired cousin, Dwynwen.

Dwynwen, however, is a prize her Christian father, King Brychan, intends to use in forging alliances. A dispossessed Irish nephew with a claim to the throne as strong as his own would never be the ally Brychan seeks.

Returning to an Ireland on the brink of war, Maelon is drawn into a deadly struggle for power where loyalty is fragile, betrayal is everywhere, and redemption seems impossible. With his brother's throne hanging in the balance, can Maelon rise above the forces of love, family, and faith and find peace?

A sweeping historical epic of loyalty, betrayal, and forbidden love that has echoed across the centuries.

Perfect for fans of Robb Pritchard, Matthew Harffy and Peter Tremayne.
