A storm is brewing.
 
As King Edward of England tightens his grip, conscripting Scotland’s sons for a war not of their choosing and bleeding the land dry with merciless taxes, whispers of rebellion stir in the shadows. Edyth Ruthven, a seer burdened with visions of an uncertain future, knows the tides of history are shifting—and they will leave no one untouched.
 
Divided loyalties and dangerous alliances threaten to tear the land apart. Ewan Ruthven walks a treacherous path, navigating shifting allegiances and the weight of a kingdom on the brink. But even as war looms, his greatest battle may be keeping his scattered family safe. With Edyth facing a difficult pregnancy and secrets threatening to unravel their fragile peace, survival is anything but certain.
 
Iain, meanwhile, is ensnared in a treasonous plot while grappling with an uneasy betrothal to Alice Stewart. What begins as an unwanted arrangement soon becomes something more—but can love bloom in the shadow of war? And Cait, long yearning for action, finds herself at the heart of the rebellion when the fugitive Andrew Moray arrives at her doorstep. The time for eavesdropping is over. Now, she must decide: is she ready for the fight ahead?
 
As swords clash and betrayals mount, the Ruthvens must navigate a world on the edge of chaos. But in a war for Scotland’s freedom, will their sacrifices be enough?
