Publisher's Synopsis
Part III of the Windflower Saga A victim of conspiracy that reaches to the highest levels, Tribune Loris Kennet is unjustly stripped of rank and position in the elite Royal Winged Cavalry of Pomerania. He is publicly flogged, disgraced, shunned by comrades and friends, doubted even by his own beloved father, and facing a banishment so harsh it will surely kill him. With the hope it will keep his son alive to clear his name one day, his father urges him to accept an alternative. Enroute to the remote southern Wastelands of distant Kimbria, married by proxy and in name only to a widow he has never met, Loris wonders if the screams in the nightmares that disturb his sleep will ever be silenced.
