It is the summer of 641 A.D.,and Merwenna of Weyham impatiently awaits her betrothed: a young warrior who marched to war, and never returned. She goes in search of him, travelling to Tamworth -the seat of the Mercian King - only to discover the bitter truth. He is dead.In Tamworth, Merwenna meets Welsh battle Lord, Prince Cynddylan, who led a host of warriors to help Mercia fight Northumbria. From the moment Merwenna and Cynddylan meet, their paths are entwined. In a journey from Tamworth, through the green heart of Mercia, and into the woods and mountains of Wales, Merwenna struggles between grief for the man she has lost, and her powerful attraction to this battle lord who appears to love only power and glory.
