For five long years Joan had mourned the loss of her fiancé, Michael. At long last she was ready to move on with her life. She was going to carefully, delicately, reopen a connection with Hugh, the man honor had forced her to put aside. Perhaps now, after all the pain and suffering, she could have her one chance at joy.
Hugh had returned from the Crusades with a mission - to lend assistance those who were weak and vulnerable. When an unknown woman had the potential to interfere with a critical assignment, at first he strove against the interference. It took him completely by surprise to realize she was the woman he had longed for, that summer's afternoon long ago in the Holy Land. The woman who now haunted his dreams.
Joan and Hugh quickly discover that the kidnappings and local violence they are investigating go far deeper than they ever could have imagined. Soon the threat broils into a massive thundercloud, roiling, rumbling, threatening all they hold dear.
