A generation after Arthur
Pendragon ruled, Briton lies fragmented into warring kingdoms and
principalities.
Eighteen-year-old Alden du
Lac ruled the tiny kingdom of Cerniw. Now he half-hangs from a wooden pole, his
back lashed into a mass of bloody welts exposed to the cold of a cruel winter
night. He’s to be executed come daybreak—should he survive that long.
When Alden notices the
shadowy figure approaching, he assumes death has come to end his pain. Instead,
the daughter of his enemy, Cerdic of Wessex, frees and hides him, her motives
unclear.
Annis has loved Alden
since his ill-fated marriage to her Saxon cousin—a marriage that ended in blood
and guilt—and she would give anything to protect him. Annis’s rescue of Alden
traps them between a brutal Saxon king and Alden’s remaining allies. Meanwhile,
unknown forces are carefully manipulating the ruins of Arthur’s legacy.
