Entwined with these events runs the conflict between his legitimate son, Dafydd, and his illegitimate son, Gruffydd, over the succession to a kingdom already at odds with the King of England whose struggle to assert his own authority on the land ultimately ends with Llywelyn's dreams for an independent Wales after his death in tatters.Caught in the midst of it all Joanna struggles to be accepted by Llywelyn's children, born to a woman who cannot rest in her grave until she sees her son crowned as the next Prince of Wales. But Tangwystl is not alone in her battle to fulfill her dying wish, for on her death bed she had secured the promise of her ladies maid and confidant, Bronwyn, who's meddling in the dark arts unleashes forces beyond even her control....

Set in a troubled era in which King Henry II is at war with his sons, Storms and Shadows follows the fortunes of the de Braose family as they struggle to emerge as one of the most wealthy and influential families in medieval England.
