Summary
This is the first in a series of fantasy novels called "The Dalemark Quartet". In the mythical land of Dalemark, there has been no king for over 50 years, and the North and the South are at odds with one another. Travel is not safe between the two, and spies are everywhere. Only musicians can travel, and Moril, his sister Brid, brother Dagner, and parents Clennen and Lenina make their living singing and taking paid passengers-like the mysterious Kialan. When Clennen is killed, Moril, Brid, Dagner, and Kialan all try to flee North, and find out who murdered Clennen.

When their father, a traveling minstrel, is killed, three children involved in rebellion and intrigue inherit a lute-like cwidder with more than musical powers.
Publisher's Notes
For centuries, Dalemark has been a land divided by the warring earldoms of the North and South. Now, with the help of the Undying, the mysterious gods of Dalemark, four extraordinary young people -- from the past, present, and future -- nust join forces to reunify their beloved land. When Moril inherits his father's prized instrument -- a Cwidder said to have belonged to one of the Undying -- he must learn to harness its strange power in time to prevent a destructive civil war.
