Publisher's Synopsis
Diama, Micel and Nithan set out on their quest to discover the whereabouts of Nithan's missing wife, Catherine, who disappeared from her home some months previously. On their way, they unwittingly stumble across a lynch mob and they rescue an extraordinary individual who has an incredible story to tell - a story so unbelievable that they're convinced he's crazy. Is he merely delusional or is he actually telling the truth? None of the three companions can decide. Leaving this question unanswered, Diama hatches a plan to rescue Nithan's wife from a brothel where she's being held captive, but the plan doesn't quite go to plan because they soon find a vengeful group of desperadoes on their trail. The final battle on a cliff top is dramatic, with Diama fated to experience the worst of all possible tragedies.
