The Falcons of Fire and Ice

1564, Lisbon. The Inquisition displays its power and spreads fear.

Heretics are tortured and burned. For those who oppose the Church, silence is preferable to a slow, agonizing death.

Isabela, daughter of the Royal Falconer, is caught in a terrifying Church scheme.
Two of the King's precious white falcons are slaughtered; her father is arrested. He and his family will be killed unless the birds are replaced.

Isabela, young and headstrong, must travel into strange lands to find these impossibly rare birds and save her father. It is a journey into a dark and dangerous world, filled with menacing people driven by fearful beliefs.

And the Church has sent a companion to ensure she never returns . . .
