The Raven's Price
A horse trader visiting the royal court unwittingly reveals that a young English nobleman—long thought dead—is being held in slavery by the Lord of the Isles. A letter to the powerful chieftain bring an invitation to visit and a surprise proposal of marriage for Margaret's sister Christina. Their journey to his remote fiefdom leads them into a web of murder and danger.
When a young woman is found dead, Margaret suspects that their host has killed her to clear the way for his marriage to Christina. King Malcolm wants the alliance to secure the peace between their two realms, but agrees to end the marriage contract if Margaret can prove that her sister’s betrothed is a cold-blooded killer. Can Margaret solve the mystery before an ill-starred wedding takes place?
When a beggar at her door turns out to be a high born lady, Margaret learns of a family destroyed by the Norman invasion. She resolves to help the woman find her missing daughter—abducted and enslaved by a local mormaer. When the mormaer’s daughter is found murdered, the foreigners quickly become scapegoats. Can Margaret save her displaced countrywomen’s lives, while navigating her new role as queen in a foreign court?
