King Cador's children inherit a land abandoned by the Romans, torn by warring tribes. Riva can cure others, but she cannot heal her own scars. Keyne battles to be seen as the king's son, although born a daughter. And Sinne dreams of love, longing for adventure. All three fear a life of confinement within the walls of the hold, their people's last bastion of strength against the invading Saxons. However, change comes on the day ash falls from the sky – bringing Myrdhin, meddler, and magician. The siblings discover the power that lies within them and the land.
