The Defiant Heart
The
mighty fleet of drakken swept north, carving the fog-bound sea. Swift and
silent they coursed, triumphant high-prowed dragon ships, their hulls heavy
with plunder—serpents in the mists . . .
Onward
they plowed through trackless ocean and sunless haze, bearing their precious
cargo — ivory, gold, and womanly flesh — far from the Isle of Eire, far to
where gelid shores and hoarfrost lairs brinked the earth.
A horn
brayed long and deep, sending chills to crawl over Ailinn as the lead vessel
signaled its companions through the curtain of gray. The others quickly took up
the call and repeated the blast from stern to stern till the waters vibrated
with the sound of trumpeting beasts.
Thus begins the perilous adventure of a beautiful Irish captive and shining warrior of the North who vows to save her. Join Ailinn and Lyting as their story sweeps from the shores of Ireland to the lands of the Rus and the glittering courts of Byzantium. Amid dangers and intrigue, their passions set fire and will not be denied.
