Dalla quarta di copertina

In the aftermath of 1066, a Norman army marches through the North of England: burning, killing and laying waste to everything in its path. The Harrowing has begun. As towns and villages disappear under the Norman yoke, five travellers fleeing ahead of this advance are drawn together as refugees in their own country, journeying through a wasteland to seek sanctuary or join the last stand of the Saxon rebellion. But are they fleeing the Normans or their own troubles?

Priest, Lady, Servant, Warrior, Minstrel: each has their own story; each their own sin. As enemies past and present close in, their prior deeds catch up with them and they discover there is no sanctuary from fate.
