Publisher's Synopsis
Like her father and grandfather before her, Cecily Campbell has entered the knighthood and joined the ranks of the Knight Guards. Eager to do her heritage proud and defend her city, she rushes to the marketplace to stop a madman from terrorising the populace. She quickly realises, however, that she is outmatched and ill-prepared for a fight. A lone figure named Luke Ainsworth swoops to the rescue. A swordsman and blacksmith of much renown, he repairs the broken sword Cecily has inherited from her father and takes her down a road of perilous adventure beyond her wildest dreams.
