Beskrivelse
Duncanne Collinne MacKay sneaks out at with the idea of seeing the fabled rune stones on her family's property. Descended from Druids, she doesn't believe the superstitious stories heard since childhood. Confronted by a cousin, she insists she is going with or without him, sneaking out via an old hidden passage. Evan, who believing the old stories true, goes strictly to keep her out of trouble. They are stunned to encounter trespassers. Trespassers, while bent on murder, also look like they stepped from the old paintings on the keep's walls, swords and all. Tucked away in her memory of that night is the drool worthy man in a kilt who rescues them. After warning her to stay away from the runes, Gavin Leod promises to protect her with his life. He then leaves her with the gift of a ring. The Moonstone, set in silver, says she is under his protection. The ring's swirling stone heightens her gifts. The same gifts she keeps tucked away in denial. Murders have her banned from visiting Scotland after that night by her family. If there is a full moon scheduled, her visit is not. As the last of the MacKay Clan, Duncanne is dragged back due to the need of settling family affairs. The job is unfortunately hers by default. Everyone else has passed and not by natural causes. More like well executed accidents, on full moons. Unknown to Duncanne, this visit to Scotland will start a collision course that has been gearing for centuries. The Sleeping Warrior has a duty, and that duty will be fulfilled. On his patrol, Gavin spots a woman running and the enemy searching for her. He intercepts the woman, discovering she is his thought to be lost ward. Duncanne Collinne MacKay tried to outrun her destiny. Now she will not only carry a big sword to meet it, she will use the fabled power her family passed down to save her line.For the reader to note : Violence; Attempted Assault; Physical Abuse; Archaic Rules; Medieval to Modern Setting
