SummaryThroughout her acclaimed writing career, Julie Garwood
has captivated readers with characters who are compelling,
daring, and bursting with life. Now one of the most popular
novelists of our time proudly returns to her beloved
historical romance roots—in a thrilling tale of love,
murder, adventure, and mystery set against the haunting
landscape of medieval Scotland.
For Princess Gabrielle of St. Biel, Scotland is a land of
stunning vistas, wild chieftains, treacherous glens, and
steep shadows—skullduggery, betrayal, and now murder.
Prized for her exquisite beauty, the daughter of one of
England's most influential barons, Gabrielle is also a
perfect bargaining chip for a king who needs peace in the
Highlands: King John has arranged Gabrielle's marriage to a
good and gentle laird. But this marriage will never take place.
For Gabrielle, everything changes in one last burst of
freedom—when she and her guards come upon a scene of
unimaginable cruelty. With one shot from her bow and arrow,
Gabrielle takes a life, saves a life, and begins a war.
Within days, the Highlands are aflame with passions as a
battle royal flares between enemies old and new. Having come
to Scotland to be married, Gabrielle is instead entangled in
Highland intrigue. For two sadistic noblemen,
underestimating Gabrielle's bravery and prowess may prove
fatal. But thanks to a secret Gabrielle possesses, Colm
MacHugh, the most feared man in Scotland, finds a new cause
for courage. Under his penetrating gaze, neither Gabrielle's
body nor heart is safe.
A gripping novel that delves into the heart of
emotions—unyielding passions of love, hate, revenge,
and raw desire—Shadow Music is
magnificent gift from Julie Garwood and a crowning
achievement in her amazing career.
