The final battle for love, life and liberty has begun! Ayla has had to defend her people in the past, but this time, it is no mercenary rabble outside the gates of her castle: it is the army of the Margrave von Falkenstein himself. Her people are outnumbered and have nowhere to run. But they do have one last, desperate hope: A knight in blood-red armor with the face of a god and the heart of a devil. Will the enemy succumb to him? And more importantly... will Ayla? The third and final volume of Robert Thier's "Robber Knight"-Trilogy.

Lieutenant Ray Hodges was a beast of a man. In fact, he was known as 'Beast' around the Air Force base and over the last ten years of hard work he had earned the name. He lived and breathed the Air Force... but that life came to a screeching halt when he found himself close to dead and shipped back to his hometown by the beach with nothing to do but recover and work his way back to the air force. What happens when his life collides with Seychelles Roberts, a woman who lived to help anyone and everyone into a better lifestyle? And what will Seychelles do when she sees that this beast of a man needs her help? Or maybe she's the one who needs him?

Alisa sealed her eyes shut, in a desperate attempt to hide herself as silent tears slipped down her cheeks. She wanted to scream, she ached for her mother, she wanted her brother to hold her in his arms. A large cold hand bound in a fingerless glove veiled her mouth, keeping her quiescent while the other hugged her tight and hushed her. She released a inaudible whimper and trembled. Poor little Alisa didn't understand. She couldn't apprehend why those men on the other side of the tree wanted her dead. She knew they were bad people, but didn't know why. Her young and fallacious mind paralyzed her from straight thinking. Nikolai cringed as the voices got more blatant as they walked by the trail. They were searching. He hated constraining Alisa, she was so afraid, but if he didn't, they would surely hear her silent screams. The sky was crepuscular and only the soft moonlight illuminated the woods. If there wasn't such a high risk of death, one would stand outside in awe at such a beautiful night. "It will be okay Alisa.." he whispered just loud enough for her to hear. He couldn't let anything happen to her. She was all he had left. And sadly, it applied in reverse. The German voices grew louder as they neared the section of the trail where they were hid. It was snowing and Alisa shivered in Nikolai's arms. Nikolai's heart raced and his hand moved from being wrapped around Alisa to his holster at his side, pulling out a his black pistol. He gripped it tightly and held it close to him and took a deep breath. The voices got louder and lights shone around the area. Nikolai's mind raced for their next move. He couldn't surrender to them, he had seen what these men had done back at the village, he would surely be killed on the spot, and if those men had enough of the devil in them, only God knows the horrific things they might do to Alisa.
