But on her journey, Drest learns that the war-band is legendary for terrorizing the land. Every time she faces a challenge, her five brothers speak to her in her mind about courage and her role in the war-band. Hunted by a bandit with a dark link to her family's past, aided by a witch whom she rescues from the stake, Drest travels through unwelcoming villages, desolate forests, and haunted towns. So she starts off on a wild rescue attempt, taking a wounded invader along as a hostage. Her father, the Mad Wolf of the North, and her beloved brothers are a fearsome war-band, but now Drest is the only one who can save them.
One dark night, Drest's sheltered life on a remote Scottish headland is shattered when invading knights capture her family, but leave Drest behind. A Scottish medieval adventure about the youngest in a war-band who must free her family from a castle prison after knights attack her home-with all the excitement of Ranger's Apprentice and perfect for fans of heroines like Alanna from The Song of the Lioness series.
