Two countries locked in a deadly rivalry. One stubborn woman who sees through the enemy’s plans.

Spymaster Mara warns that her country’s enemies plan to invade. Her words fall on deaf ears. Many in her ruler’s court feel new weapons such as musketry have made war too apocalyptic for either side to consider. To them, her calls for military readiness risk provoking the conflict she hopes to prevent. As her grim predictions come true, she must outwit enemies both foreign and domestic to defend her homeland from the largest army the world has ever seen.


This political fantasy series follows Mara’s life from youth to middle age, showing how her yearning to return to her idyllic childhood home drives her to fight for a society which allows ordinary people like her kinfolk to live freely, and how she matures from a scared little girl into a war leader.

Book One: The Witches of Crannock Dale. Eleven-year-old Mara wants to go on being her pappy’s little girl forever, but when knights of the official church arrest her favorite aunt on trumped-up charges of witchcraft, she leaves her safe childhood world behind. Shocked by adults’ willingness to accept injustice, she runs away from home to rescue her aunt from execution. She finds that respected members of her community are using her aunt as a scapegoat to cover up their own collaboration with foreign agents. As Mara schemes to protect her family from these conspirators, she deduces that they are part of a larger plot which threatens her entire nation, and which her country’s leaders fail to see. That problem is too large for a child to solve, but it will define Mara’s life.


Book Two: The Rebels of Caer City. Teenage Mara’s obsessive friendship with a fellow student at boarding school draws her into activism. When her friend vanishes, Mara risks everything to find her. Her intensity and her questioning nature put her at odds with many around her, but she makes new friends and heals her relationship with her formidable mother. She finds romance, and although the relationship proves stormy, it gives her the contacts she needs to solve the mystery of her friend’s disappearance and help an honorable prince onto the throne.


Book Three: The Hideous Garden. Now in her forties, Mara heads the new ruler’s spy services. After years of rebelling against her country’s injustices, she finds herself responsible for its survival. Meanwhile, the plot against her country seems to be taking shape. Mara returns from an undercover mission convinced a hostile nation’s peace overtures are a trick, and that its authoritarian political ideology will push its leaders to pursue world dominance. Mara must convince a skeptical ruler to prepare for war, and she must also balance her doubts about her deeply flawed society against her duty to defend it.


Book Four: The Rending of the World. Mara guards her ruler’s life on a diplomatic mission as he makes a last-ditch attempt to negotiate a peace treaty. War breaks out, stranding the two of them in a remote northern land. After decades of singledom, Mara grudgingly teams up with her former lover to save her ruler from assassination. The two of them take the ruler on a perilous sea voyage home while the ruler’s fourteen-year-old daughter finds herself leading her country in wartime. Only Mara’s shrewdness and the young princess’ determination can stop the enemy onslaught.
