About This Book

Dans une Bretagne agitée, deux cavaliers de haute naissance sont attaqués par une bande de routiers; après un bref combat ils capturent un blessé qui jure fidélité à un puissant seigneur, ce qui attise soupçons et interrogations au sein du lignage. Parallèlement, la nièce du chef de maison disparaît de sa chambre, partagée entre la peur et un amour secret qui l'empêche de se réfugier chez son oncle. Le récit mêle affrontements armés, trahisons latentes et enjeux familiaux tandis que loyautés et mystères se dévoilent.
