AD 633, Northumbria. Beobrand is a young outsider in the kingdom of Bernicia. When he is compelled to join his brother in the household of King Edwin, he must learn the skills of a warrior to defend the war-ravaged kingdoms of Northumbria, for the land is rife with danger as warlords vie for supremacy.
Amongst the blood and betrayals, Beobrand learns of his brother's murder. Inexperienced but ruthless, driven by a desire for vengeance, Beobrand relentlessly pursues his enemies. Deadly challenges will transform him from a boy to a man who stands strong in the clamour and gore of the shieldwall.

But can Beobrand mete out the retribution he craves without sacrificing his honour... and his soul?
