When he rescues a young woman named Lilia from bandits, Taerith Romany is caught in a web of loyalties: Lilia is the future queen of a spoiled king, and though Taerith is not allowed to love her, neither he can bring himself to leave her without a friend. Their lives soon intertwine with the fiercely proud slave girl, Mirian, whose tragic past and wild beauty make her the target of the king's unscrupulous brother. In a land of fog and fens, unicorns and wild men, Taerith stands at the crossroads of good and evil, where men are vanquished by their own obsessions or saved by faith in higher things. The king's rule is only a knife's edge from slipping-and when it does, all three will be put to the ultimate test.

Rachel Starr Thomson is also the author of Angel in the Woods, Lady Moon, the Seventh World Trilogy, and other novels and short stories. Taerith is one of the Romany Epistles, a nine-author series about nine exiled siblings abroad in a hostile world.
