Description: With his last breath, Dylan Matheson, Laird of Ciorram, leaves to his eldest son Ciaran a legacy of land and blood—and magic. For the Sidhe of which he speaks is the fairie Sinnan, who long ago brought him back in time, from the modern world to eighteenth-century Scotland, hoping for a hero who would save the land from British tyranny.
Now Sinnan will protect the son as she had the father. But she no longer believes that the Jacobites can prevail, that the history that Dylan knew can be changed. She urges Ciaran to continue on his father's path of peace, no matter how uneasy that peace might be.
Ciaran, though, has other ideas. The Highlanders are rising again, and his Clan is eager to join the fight. He will let nothing, not the experience of his dead father, nor the council of his fairie advisor, nor his unexpected love for Leah Hadley, daughter of the local British Commander—stop him. He is headed, Sinnan knows, for the dread killing field of Culloden. And even her magic may not be enough to bring him safe home...
