Description
"Readers who love medieval-esque fantasy will delight in this rousing tale of rebellion." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
After a warlord slaughters her patients, Sister Alessia quits the cloister and strikes out on her own to heal the victims in a brutal dynastic conflict. She meets Ulnoth, a farmer mad for revenge over his massacred family, and Corren, a soldier who deserts rather than commit more atrocities. Their roaming forest camp attracts others and becomes the center of a peasant insurgency raiding the forces of both sides to survive. Alessia struggles to temper their fury as well as tend wounds, consenting to ever greater violence to keep her new charges safe. When they uncover proof of a foreign conspiracy prolonging the bloodshed, they'll risk the very lives they've saved to expose the truth and bring the war to an end.
