Produktbeschreibung

He was banished for a crime he didn't commit. Has he returned for revenge or love?

Just a few months short of winning his knighthood, Jevon was accused of stealing a precious brooch from the baron's wife. Furious, the baron banished him with the brand of a thief on his hand and a price on his head if he ever returned to the county of Poitou. Abandoning his hopes of an honorable future, Jevon takes refuge among a band of disreputable mercenary archers who welcome the extraordinary eyesight that makes him nearly undefeatable with the bow. They dub him "le Falquet"-the Falcon. But the shame of his unjust brand haunts him, as do memories of the woman he loved. The same woman who accused him to the baron.

Constantia has grieved seven years over Jevon's banishment. He had called her his heart's twin. Lacking a dowry now as she did then, she has buried her loneliness in caring for the baron's children. Constantia is visiting a neighboring castle when the king's war with his rebellious sons comes to Poitou. Frightened for the safety of the children she has become devoted to, she makes a desperate flight through the woods to warn the baron that their castle will be the next to fall. But an archer with a familiar face intercepts her, determined to prevent her from raising the alarm: Jevon, no longer an idealistic squire, but now a vengeful man.

Constantia cannot blame Jevon for returning to Poitou with revenge in his heart, but she is stunned to learn that he thinks her to blame for his exile all these years. If he was not the thief she had been made to believe, who was? Love flames swiftly back to life when she and Jevon are reunited, but love may not be enough to overcome Jevon's pain at her betrayal unless she can discover the truth behind the missing brooch.
