Helier L’Ersee fought on both the French and English sides of the Thirty Years War and he knows he has seen enough catastrophe to last a man a lifetime. He now wants to hang up his sword and settle down to a life of domesticity in his native island of Guernsey with his beautiful German wife. Hopefully, beyond the reach of witches and vampires — and witch-hunters. But it is not to be. For Helier is once again summoned out of retirement by Cardinal Richlieu, this time to save the life of Henrietta Maria, Queen of England — sister to the French King Louis XIII.
Helier once again finds himself plunged into the midst of war and carnage, this time the Great Rebellion. He discovers that no man can turn his back upon his past and he is joined in his mission by a mysterious young woman, who may, or may not, be a witch herself. The second volume carries Helier from attempted retirement into the English Civil War, where royal service, witch-hunting and the ambiguous powers of a new companion make political rescue inseparable from supernatural danger.
