Is love enough for a mother who must be separated from her son? Having escaped a violent childhood, Enya is safe living with her husband's powerful clan. When her long-awaited son is born, she must fulfill a vow made in desperation--the boy is dedicated to God and goes to live with the local priest. Still, she clings to the hope that the church's influence will eradicate any trace of her bloodline's temperament. The monks rename him Columcille, which means Dove of the Church. In a prophetic dream, Enya learns her son will grow in power and influence, and her heart is at peace. But while Enya understands her son's influence will be for the good of the church, others believe the prophecy predicts political influence, and try to prevent Columcille from seeking temporal power--though he does not desire it. As he rises to prominence in the church, Columcille's temper erupts when a king's decision goes against him, and he calls his clan to arms. The consequences are more devastating than anyone could have imagined--and changes his life forever. This retelling of the early life of St. Columcille and his mother will usher readers on a fateful journey through ancient Ireland's monastic centers, her wild coastline islands, and the land Columcille believed was filled with holy angels, a place where he felt safe ... yet was destined to abandon.
