Hand of the King's Evil

Julianne has married again, and once more she has been whisked away on her wedding night, this time very much against her will. Clearly she must be rescued, but is she just the bait in a trap for someone else?

Meanwhile a renegade preacher is performing miracles and gathering an army of the poor and needy about him. All of the warring factions in Outremer would love to know who is he working for, and doubtless suspect each other. But the preacher is clear in his intent. He means to lead his ragged army against Surayon.
