Description

A brand new edition of Matthew Harffy's thrilling, critically acclaimed historical adventure novel. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell.

AD 838. Deep in the forests of Anglo-Saxon Britain, one man's solitary existence is shattered when he stumbles on a mutilated corpse.

Accused of the murder, Dunston must clear his name and keep the dead man's daughter alive in the face of savage pursuers desperate to prevent a terrible secret from being revealed.

Rushing headlong through Wessex, Dunston will need to use all the skills of survival garnered from a lifetime in the wilderness. And if he has any hope of victory against the implacable enemies on their trail, he must confront his long-buried past – becoming the man he once was and embracing traits he had promised he would never return to.

The Wolf of Wessex must hunt again: honour and duty demand it.

'A breathtaking novel that sweeps the reader into a dark and dangerous world' Paul Fraser Collard
'A genuinely superb novel' Steven McKay
