Isobel Graham has always been different. As a Scottish lassie living high on the forbidding cliffs of the medieval Dunnottar Castle and training fierce predatory birds to do her bidding, Isobel has never had time for romantic notions...until she meets Derek Sinclair.
Although he was raised in Scotland, Derek Sinclair is an Englishman. He makes his living as an English soldier. Ordered to attack and kill his former countrymen, he finds himself injured and the only survivor of a skirmish with Dunnottar men-at-arms. Now, he must become a Scotsman or die.
In this exciting sequel to BESIEGED, the falconers of Dunnottar continue their sacred mission to protect the ancient regalia of the Scottish kings.
