About this audiobook
Christina, a gentle and refined young woman, is forced into a marriage that brings her to a lawless castle ruled by a fierce robber baron. Her presence becomes a transformative force, battling the predatory "eagles" with the quiet, persistent grace of a "dove" to save the soul of her new family. This medieval tale is a powerful contrast between the brutality of power and the strength of peace.
