Isolated, frozen to the bone and with no way out...
1356: Burnt Candlemas. King Edward invades Scotland in the dead of winter. When the fleet bringing supplies for his army is scattered by a storm, it seems God himself is punishing the English for the destruction of a Scottish church.
Wrongly blamed for the fire, archer Martin Kemp finds himself in chains, a victim of the king's wrath. As the army retreats to England, it is ambushed by the Scots in the whiteout of a blizzard. Kemp finds himself cut off with a handful of men, desperate to find their way home from a bleak and hostile land.
An enthralling historical adventure, full of intrigue and suspense, perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Matthew Harffy.
