The Inheritance — Nancy Varian Berberick

In the barren borderland between the kingdom of the elves and the land of the dwarves, outlaws seize an elven princess. Sustained by faith in her husband and her god, she waits patiently for the rescue that is sure to come.

But waiting is a dangerous game--one that can cause a princess and an outlaw to look beyond themselves. To dare to trust the enemy.

In a place where suspicions run high and bloody battles are the order of the day, trust can be the most dangerous game of all.
