AD 647. War hangs heavy in the hot summer air as Penda of Mercia marches into the northern kingdom of Bernicia. Caught unawares, the Bernician forces are besieged within the great fortress of Bebbanburg.



It falls to Beobrand of Ubbanford to mount the stronghold's defence, but even while battle rages, powerful enemies seek long-desired vengeance against him. With Northumbria's future in jeopardy, can Beobrand withstand the powers that beset him and find a path to victory against all odds?



As the Mercians tighten their grip and unknown assassins close in, Beobrand must also struggle with conflicting oaths and the dreadful pull of a love that threatens to destroy everything he holds dear.
