When her parents are brutally murdered during King Richard's campaign in the Crusades in 1191, Isabel de Clairmont's dreams of marriage are shattered. Betrayed by her guardian and threatened by his son, the brooding, enigmatic Hugh de Mortaine, Isabel discovers her parents' deaths to be inextricably linked to the mysterious pendant torn from her mother's body, a pendant forged in the lost Crusader Kingdom of Outremer nearly a century before. Why does knowledge of its origins bring death to all who possess it? Only by journeying to the Holy Land itself can Isabel find the truth, avenge her parents' memory and win the justice she desires...
