Cardhu is lost to the Norse. Further inland a new settlement grows, in the shadow of a ruined tower with a history of its own. At last it seems as if the druid stones will be together again, allowing the place to be protected. But before the spell is cast, the druidess Méabh is abducted, forcing Donnell and his companions on a treacherous journey towards the great capital – where new armies gather.
Men are lost along the way, and old adversaries return. But nothing can prepare them for the events that will unfold by the church of Cathures, on the shores of the great River Clud.
The fourth instalment of the Druid Stones Saga, tales of Celtic history and magic set in 9th century Scotland.
