When Mordred was born, the wizard Merlin gave a prophecy that he would one day bring about the death of his father, the great King Arthur. In an attempt to stop this from happening, Merlin advised Arthur to place all the babies who were born on May Day in a boat and send them to sea to die. But fate will not be so easily denied. Alone among the infants, Mordred survived and was taken in by a kindly fisherman and his wife. But a connection was forged on that boat, a connection between Mordred and the spirits of those dead children.Mordred grows up surrounded by the ghosts of the babies who died. They are his friends and his playmates. For a time, the boy Mordred is happy as a fisherman's son, blissfully unaware of his true identity. But eventually, he is taken to live with his birth mother, and discovers the true nature of the events that led to his foster father's finding him. From the palace of Orkney and a cold, forbidding mother, Mordred travels to Camelot, court of the father who tried to kill him. Here Mordred must decide who he is, haunted by his fate, torn between the father who, despite everything, he is growing to love, and the spirits of his friends, who have suffered so greatly at Arthur's hands.
