When a girl child is born to
the king's new queen, his sons must flee or face imminent death. After many
years in hiding, Verity tracks down her would-be brothers in a neighbouring
kingdom. As gifts for the twelve men, she plucks twelve enchanted lilies from a
witch's garden. Immediately, the men are turned to ravens. According to the
enchantress' spell, Verity must not make a sound for seven years or her
brothers will die.
At once, Verity is found by
a prince, who takes her home for his bride. His mother shows the young girl
mercy by confining her to a tower for seven years. In that time, the raven
Benjamin visits her daily. When they learn to communicate without words,
Benjamin reveals a secret that allows their love to blossom.
Will Verity escape the
arrogant prince, or be forced to wed? How can a raven become her saviour?
