Innocent young patrician, Anniana, is to be un-willing pawn in a game of power that will see her wed to the decadent new emperor, Titus, unless she can escape Rome with her only protector, a violent, Norse giant.

They have nothing in common except ... ... love and their need to rescue their son. Brennwen, the White Raven, has been cursed with the gift of prophecy since birth. Shunned and condemned because of her albino colouring and strange dreams of catastrophe, she has lived her whole life in fear. But a dream that her son, reincarnated into a Roman family, is in danger forces her to face her fears and go in search of the child, before her prophecy has a chance to come true. Gaius Annius Bibulus has lived an unimpressive Roman patrician’s life since leaving the army and settling in Britannia. His only cause for pride is his motherless son, Cal. When the boy is kidnapped by Celts, as part of a plan to start a bloody rebellion, and a pale Celtic Seer predicts the event and what is to follow, he has no choice but to heed her warnings and let her lead him to where she dreams 'her son’ can be found. As the unlikely pair chase across Roman Britain in pursuit of the four-year-old child, love grows between them. But as time runs out for Cal, it also runs out for the reluctant lovers. Because a Roman Patrician cannot marry out of his class and a determined Celtic slave will not give herself freely to a man who owns her, nor stay with him if he seeks to do his duty by marrying another.
