Previously published as "A Cup of Blood"
Arthur is dead, but a new evil is stirring. The chosen of an ancient Celtic goddess is not what one would expect.
Maria of Rome is searching for a new home in Dark Ages Britain. One where she can hide her secret. But when ruthless "Witch Hunters" get on her trail, the religious zealots won't rest until she's trapped. Little do they know the danger they face. Will she survive their grasp?
Nursed to health by an alluring druidess with a notable past of her own, Maria's strength increases, along with an unfamiliar desire for the beautiful caretaker. But with Witch Hunters still hot on her trail, roving shifters terrifying the countryside, and Welsh lords warring over their fractured nation, Maria has no choice but to act. As her short recovery time ends, her dangerous fight has only just begun…
After centuries of hiding in the shadows, can Maria stand in the light and battle to protect Britain?
