โฆ Synopsis
As summer comes at last to Ireland, an uneasy peace holds at Loch Garman. The Northmen, eager to get to sea, work relentlessly on their ships, with the aid of their unlikely allies, the Irish, who are just as eager to see them go. But not warrior-turned-monk Brother Becc. Certain that God demands the heathens be punished, he is determined that Thorgrim and his men will not simply go free. And when another band of raiders arrives, Becc finds the excuse to take action. Meanwhile, in the Anglo-Saxon kindgom of Wessex, murder leads to a violent struggle for the seat of ealdorman, ruler of the shire of Dorset. Desperate as each side is to tip the balance of power their way, no one imagines that the upper hand might come from the direction they least expect - from the sea.
