AD 675. Mercia is torn by nationalist and religious strife. Warring Saxon kings battle for supremacy while grinding the Britons under the conqueror s heel. Both Celts and pagans are suffering energetic incursions of the new Church of Rome. Against this turbulent background, Edwin a young Brito-Saxon monk, comes to Lichfield on a quest for personal revenge. It is a quest that leads him into considerable danger - and forces him to confront the conflict between his religious beliefs and his bloody mission.
