Overview

The Steward's Shadow (The Brehon Chronicles Book II) In the hills of ancient Ireland, law is stronger than the sword. But even the oldest laws cannot stop a war that has already begun. When Brehon apprentice Aífe ingen Bréanainn uncovers a trail of signals carved into the forests and raiders moving through the valleys, she realizes something far more dangerous than cattle theft is unfolding. Someone is testing the land... mapping the roads... learning how the clans will respond. The answer lies in the shadows of power. A mysterious war leader known only as the Grey Wolf is moving through the north, manipulating alliances and planting suspicion among the southern clans. Farms burn. Valleys fall. And a single false banner nearly sparks a war between allies. As ancient Brehon law struggles to hold the fragile peace together, Aífe and her companions race across the hills of Ireland from burned valleys to rival clan halls trying to uncover the truth before the south tears itself apart. But the Grey Wolf is always one step ahead. And when the clans finally unite, they discover his plan was never to defeat them. It was to make them choose a king. Perfect for readers who enjoy: - Ancient Irish history and Brehon law - Slow-burn political thrillers - Clan rivalries and power struggles - Atmospheric historical mysteries - Series like Bernard Cornwell or Celtic historical fiction
