A young boy weeps alone at the hardness of the world. His mother is dead, his sister enslaved, and his father far from home on a hunting expedition while their village burns. He sees riders through the mist, and hides until he hears one use a name that is almost like a magic spell: Sir Rhenand. Hope returns, for who could help him but the most famous of Knights Errant?Neither Rhenand nor the boy know that the raiders pillaging the Highlands are harbingers of still greater misfortunes. When Rhenand defeated the semi-mythical Warlock of Dun Heath, he never guessed that the Warlock had agents all over the borderlands, and now they're bent on embroiling the entire region in war, bewitching a king and holding a whole nation in thrall. As armies march, Rhenand must become more than a simple Errant Knight, and to complicate matters further, he learns his marriage has been arranged, her father leads the army he must join, and a thousand men want him to be their captain. Worst of all, he discovers that behind it all is the ancient Brotherhood of the Secret, rising once more to plunge the world into darkness.
