Publisher's Synopsis
After the campaign in the Summer Isle, Isabella rides out the winter storms by studying the old gods and godly magic under Mother Lembu. Crown Prince Reginald receives word that the King is ill and his sister, acting as regent, is imposing a regime that is strangely similar to what had been happening on the Summer Isle - nobles killed, temples smashed, enforced public worship of old gods. Concerned that his family and homeland are in danger, Reginald is determined to return home. Storms are still raging with what appears to be unnatural force, making an attempt to return to Andalusia too risky. unless Isabella can somehow use the new rituals to placate the powers behind the storms and navigate the fleet safely home to face whatever has taken control of the kingdom.
