Accompanied by her loyal friends, Robin Hood's outlaw daughter, Rowan, journeys to the scene of her mother's murder, with plans for vengeance against the killers. The short book deals effectively with weighty ethical issues. With a fully realized forest setting and particularly strong characterizations of Rowan's friends and enemies, the story provides a fitting conclusion to the fantasy series.
