Timothy tries to balance justice with a god-honored king who rules unjustly. Merry deals with whether or not God would allows evil in the world. Sleiman's writing style is engaging and descriptive, and her characters (the story is told from four different points of view) have deep, interesting life issues to deal with. The story moves slowly, but once Timothy and Merry reunite, things become interesting. Timothy has moved on with his life, seeking position and power, which will come even faster if he can capture the ghosts. But when Merry runs into her old lost flame, Timothy Grey, things change forever.
They steal only what they need to live in the forests, eventually becoming known as the local ghosts. Sleiman basically provides a female version of Robin Hood in her charming historic romance, "Dauntless." Lady Merry Ellison continues to hide from King John with her band of children and teenagers.
