Regin, Son of No Man, still draws breath, but believes his heart is as dead as his beloved wife. When his dragonship nearly capsizes a coracle in the pitiless North Sea, he never expected to find a woman far gone with child shivering in the hull. An Irish queen, Moira was set adrift by her dead husband’s brother who couldn’t chance that the child would be a son.
Against their expectations, they learn to love each other, but will Moira’s determination to see her son back on his father’s throne tear them apart?
(Readers will want Maidensong and Erinsong to complete the trilogy.)
