In the fifth book of the Catherine LeVendeur series (after Strong as Death, 1996), Catherine, Edgar and their baby, James, leave France for Scotland after receiving news that Edgar's two oldest brothers and his nephew have recently been ambushed and murdered. Edgar's father, the patriarch of the family is worried not only about his family troubles but also about the disputed bishopric of Durham. While Edgar becomes more embroiled in the religious war and Catherine fights to keep her surrogate family alive, they come to realize that someone is trying to wipe out Edgar's family.
