Historical
This brilliant second novel, featuring the hero of Sworn
Sword, begins in June 1069 on the war-torn Welsh Marches and
ends with William the Conqueror's brutal campaign known as
the Harrying of the North.
The story begins on the Welsh Marches, where Tancred has
been given land by his new lord, Robert Malet, in return for
his services in the battle for York. Now a lord in his own
right, he has knights of his own to command and a manor to
call home. But all is far from peaceful. The Welsh are
joining forces with the English against the Normans and when
skirmishes turn into a full scale battle at Shrewsbury,
Tancred is betrayed by a rival border lord and taken
prisoner by the Welsh. Meanwhile the woman he loves is taken
hostage by enemy English forces and the Vikings invade the
east coast. Never has Tancred faced a more impossible situation.
