A Gathering of Eagles

Sent on a mission to reunite the war-torn kingdom, Lady Jael and Prince William will face a darker enemy than either has ever encountered-will their love survive? The second novel about Jael of Rogan (the Lady of the Haven), begins when King George Horatio du Frain sends her husband on a mission into the high mountain region of Cragmorton to reunite the far provinces of his kingdom. Jael finds the Vale of Cragmorton a land of splendorous beauty. Upon a high round hill stands the white stone walls of Wrenook and beyond, pastureland stretches to the shores of Lake Greshne, all within the framework of the jagged, snowcapped peaks of the Grand Touri Mountains. The Cragmortons are as rugged as their surroundings...cold and uncompromising, their lives devastated by the rule of an evil magistrate. The castle has long been empty, its dark halls shrouded in mystery, the scene of a heart-rending tragedy. When their peaceful reign is interrupted by a dark vision, fulfilled in the personage of a vile enemy from a distant land, who pillages and destroys everything in his path, Prince William must lead his men into battle and Lady Jael must learn to lead a kingdom without him. A romantic tale of fantasy and high adventure, A Gathering of Eagles is the second Lady of the Haven novel. The Lady of the Haven is also available from AuthorHouse. Reading another story about Lady Jael is like reuniting with a dear friend! And in this book we meet another lady, one whose heritage is shrouded in mystery. A Gathering of Eagles is a pure delight! --VIRGINIA SMITH, author of Into the Deep
