β¦ Synopsis
His secret could destroy a legend;
Her act of treason could offer hope of escape;
Their fates intertwine as King Arthur's soldiers close in.
Viggo is a spy trapped behind enemy lines.
King Arthur's forces will stop at nothing to make sure he doesn't get back to Saxony with the secret he stole, a secret that could destroy the King and turn the tides of war.
But Viggo isn't worried.
He'll do whatever it takes to outwit them, even if it means impersonating an absent Druid scribe with the aid of the missing man's oddly-obliging wife.
Helping him is an act of treason, for which Violet Demeray offers no reason and asks nothing in return, arousing Viggo's suspicions. But as soldiers tighten their grip on the village, Viggo and Violet become deeply embroiled in each other's mysteries and forge a trust that defies the hatred of war.
When one lie changes the truth forever, Viggo is left to decide what his secret – and his freedom – is ultimately worth.
With 10 beautiful illustrations!
