Yet, the battle was not at all what he expected, and he soon found himself alone and stranded in Scotland. Thirteen-year-old Kannak's problem was just as grave. Her father deserted them and the only way to survive, she decided, was to take a husband over her mother's objections. Suddenly she was helping a hated Viking escape. Could Kannak successfully hide a Viking in the show more middle of a Scottish Clan? And why was someone plotting to kill the clan's beloved laird? show less

Reminiscent of The Manson Family, the psychologically disturbed older man who charms young people and binds them to him by feeding them drugs until they no longer recognize right from wrong. He then becomes their leader/lover/God. Not sure the ending satisfied me, but as far as the story was concerned it was a good ending.
I truly enjoyed this story. I particularly like that Marti Talbott's books are clean and I wouldn't feel uncomfortable at all having my teenagers read them. This is an easy breezy relaxing story. I look forward to reading more in this series.

Couldn't finish it. Couldn't get past Vikings speaking with Scottish accents.
სიგრიდ უნსეტის პატარა წიგნი. ძაან საიტნერესოა მომეწონა მოკლედ და საინტერესოდაა ვიგდისის და ლიოტის სასიყვარულო ამბავი. სიძულვილი=სიყვარულს
