In 1099, Samuel and his companions leave Fatimid Cairo for Palestine on a mission to find a hunted mother and child before a network of assassins reaches them. Their pursuit leads toward Jerusalem as crusading armies approach the city and its defenders prepare for siege. The murderer Al Haddad remains close behind, forcing the travellers to question allies, disguises and every fragment of intelligence they receive.
The sequel to A River of Blood shifts Samuel’s investigation into the military and religious crisis of the First Crusade. Jewish, Muslim and Christian communities face the approaching conquest from different positions, while the search for the fugitives turns a murder mystery into a contest over secrets that could alter political and sacred history. The novel combines espionage, survival and historical crime within the Siege of Jerusalem of 1099.
