Fiery Roses — Pat Mcdermott

Irish Kings still rule the Emerald Isle, and part of the kingdom is burning… In the thrilling sequel to A Band of Roses, a major discovery of offshore gas ensnares Irish Crown Princess Talty Boru and her Royal Consort, Neil in a web of blackmail and murder. When the locals of rural County Mayo object to plans to run pipelines over their pristine bogs, an arsonist tries to change their minds. One of his fires triggers a chain of events that sends newlyweds Talty and Neil to an ancient world at the mercy of a waking volcano. Their fledgling marriage comes under fire as they struggle to outwit a tyrant with a shocking secret and find their way back to Ireland. While they do, King Brian locks horns with a ruthless oil tycoon trying to bully his way across the bogs. The resulting conflict proves fatal for the Boru clan, whose members again close ranks to thwart the latest threat to the kingdom they are sworn to protect.
