Beskrivelse
Summer, 367 A.D. The Celtic tribes of the lands we now know as Scotland and Ireland conspire to assault Hadrian's Wall and drive the Romans out of Britain forever. But in order for the warriors to achieve victory in the military campaign, the druids must first gain ascendancy over the new Roman god.
Amid clandestine preparations for war, Flora, a young Pictish healer, finds herself embroiled in an epic struggle between gods and men. In order to save her family, her clan, and her people, she is called upon to sacrifice not only her life, but her very identity. Feeling trapped in a web of manipulation and deceit, she struggles to discover the true reality of who she is and who she will become.
Set in the Scottish Highlands, this story brings to life an age and a people that have remained veiled in the mists of time. Based on extensive research into the archaeology, culture, and geography of fourth-century Scotland, Daughter of the Gods explores the mysterious people knowns as the Picts-a collection of tribes so determined to retain their freedom that they dared to defy the mightiest army the ancient world had ever known.
