William Wallace remains beyond Edward I’s reach after rebellion in Scotland, and the English king turns to one of his most trusted veterans to bring the fugitive leader back. Gerald Warbow is older now and no longer possesses the effortless strength of his youth, but experience, judgement and loyalty make him more useful than a younger archer.

The search carries Gerald across the Channel into a political landscape where Wallace can find sympathy, concealment and allies. Capturing one man becomes a problem of intelligence and diplomacy as much as pursuit. Gerald must decide how to fulfil the king’s order without underestimating an opponent whose cause has survived military defeat and whose capture could inflame the conflict further.
