Synopsis

After centuries of searching, Mouse now has everything she's ever wanted within her reach—a normal life, a lover, a brother. What will she risk to keep them?

Cherished by a Father, coveted by a king, loved by an almost-priest; tormented by demons, tortured by a madman, hunted by a cult, hounded by her father. Mouse has survived it all.

Despite Mouse's power, her father always wanted a son—and now, at long last, he has him. And Mouse has a brother, someone else in the world just like her.

Hiding among a tribe of the Martu in the isolation of the Australian outback near the edges of Lake Disappointment, Mouse and Angelo have seemingly evaded at least one of the predators hunting them. Carefully dropping bogus breadcrumbs across Europe, they misdirect the Novus Rishi, a ruthless cult that wants Mouse as the ultimate weapon in their battle against evil. But when unnerving dreams start to plague Angelo, and the ancient beings of the Martu's Dreaming send prophetic warnings that include visions of Mouse at her father's side, the two lovers realize it’s time to act. With nowhere left to run, Mouse and Angelo prepare for a last showdown with their enemies.

I received this from JKS Communications for honest review. I saw this book, and at first I said no. Just from looking at the title, I was thinking to myself, "What kind of churchy book is this? Not my style...". After I read a little about it, and discovered this book was set in medieval times and h......more

Goodreads review by Dawn on October 09, 2018

This is the last in a trilogy and it is some time since I read the last in the series. I received this copy via NetGalley.. What a journey Mouse has travelled.
