Book Overview

Set in France in 1356, the story follows Thomas Blackstone, an English archer who rose to knighthood after surviving the slaughter at Crécy. Now ruling a small fiefdom in enemy territory, Blackstone finds himself targeted by betrayal, political manipulation, and the full might of the French crown.

As old wounds reopen and enemies close in, Blackstone must defend his land, his family, and his honour against overwhelming odds. With armies on the move and loyalties tested, survival depends on courage, strategy, and defiance in the face of death.
