The year is 1333 A.D. At the conclusion of the English victory of
Halidon Hill, King Edward appoints Stephen of Pembury the Guardian
Protector of the newly captured city of Berwick. To cement this
victory, he orders Stephen to marry the defeated Scottish
commander's daughter, the Lady Joselyn de Velt Seton. In a marriage
meant to symbolize the English domination over the Scots, Stephen
is nonetheless attracted to his new bride; a petite, raven-haired
beauty with pale blue eyes. Joselyn is a lady with a horrific past
and dark secrets of abuse. She is resistant to the marriage at
first but eventually her attraction to Stephen proves too much to
resist and the pair fall deeply in love. But even as their love
blossoms, Scots insurgents counter attach Berwick and Stephen is
taken prisoner. As the Guardian Protector of Berwick, he is a
mighty prize for the Scots and his public execution has been
ordered. Stephen's old friends, Tate de Lara (Dragonblade) and
Kenneth St. Hever (Island of Glass) must plot Stephen's rescue even
as Joselyn and unexpected allies launch their own rescue attempt.
It's a race against time to save Stephen from the executioner's
sword in this tale of conquest, dark secrets and everlasting love.
