Anglo-Saxon warlord Beobrand must protect his new queen from murderous intrigues in this action-packed historical adventure.
AD 635. Oswald, King of Northumbria, has secured his throne, but his plans for further alliances and conquests are thrown into disarray when his wedding to a princess of Wessex is interrupted by news of a Pictish uprising.
Rushing north, Oswald leaves trusted warrior Beobrand to escort the young queen to her new home. Their path is fraught with danger, and Beobrand must try to unravel the plots and peril if they are to survive.
