Description

"By hook or by bishop's crook, Ventianus will see him dead by nightfall." While Cuthbert and Eadmund pursue a thief through the deserted streets of an enemy city, others plot to turn their help into harm and their honour into shame. Outwitted and outnumbered, they stumble into a nest of conspiracies that may send Britain crashing back into the bloodshed and chaos from which it just emerged. But Eadmund has more in the game than Cuthbert knows, and deciding who to trust may become the most dangerous choice of all.Every treasure has a secret, every saint has a past.
