After years of happiness bestowed on Sevenwaters by Sorcha's heroism, darkness has fallen upon Ulster. Trouble is brewing and no one is safe.
Of Sorcha's three children at Sevenwaters, it is not golden-haired Niamh nor the young heir Sean, but Liadan, Sean's twin, with her special gifts, who seems to hold the key.
Liadan will need all her courage to help save her family, and all her strength to stand up to those she loves. For in the finding of her own grand passion, Liadan's course may doom them all... or be their salvation.
