It ought to have been so straightforward. Azariel Stormwolf and her betrothed, Farren Blackarrow, minyasti of The Kingdom, have retrieved two of the four lost Stones of Protection that once kept their beloved country safe. Now they have learned that the third one was chained to a white gazelle by a long-dead sorceress living in the mountains. Surely a simple hunt in the hill country would make a refreshing change from battling the evil spirits worshipped as gods by the neighbouring country of Wayast.

However, the Yellow Claw terrorist guerillas have stepped up their attacks against the Kingdom's forces, targeting Farren's family. The two minyasti must use their wits, their courage and their faith, not only to thwart the plans of the Yellow Claws but also to find and capture the elusive White Gazelle itself.

This is the fourth book in the Stones of the Kingdom series, a fast-paced faith-based fantasy series featuring a strong heroine, a brave hero, a quest and some stunning scenery.
