Raised among worship and prayer, Eren is formed from childhood in the ancient work of the Temple. The Halevi are intercessors, standing between the Whisper and the people, whose prayers carry weight and shape the course of the land. Her grandfather Malachi, High Priest of the tribe, prophesies that she will one day walk with kings, and teaches her the ways of priests and kings alike - assuring her that no cost she pays will ever be greater than its reward.

But when betrayal drives the Halevi into exile, Eren is thrust from the life of priesthood into the courts of kings, where prophecy carries a dangerous price and her calling demands everything. As the fate of a kingdom unfolds around her, she must decide whether the Whisper's promises remain true when the race set before her leads through suffering, exile, and loss.

Kings & Priests is a Christian fantasy of divine purpose, human choice, sacrifice and reward, where the fate of a kingdom unfolds through the prayers of priests, the decisions of kings, and the faithfulness with which each runs their course.
