β¦ Synopsis
Rhodes, AD 1309.
The good Knights of St John battle ancient evil as mysterious, unsolved disappearances and insane devil-worshippers threaten to turn the whole island into a bloodbath...
When three heavily armed Hospitaller knights go missing from a sleepy village their Grand Master sends legendary hero Sir Richard-at-Lee and his sergeant-at-arms to discover their fate. Met with resistance from terrified locals, and whispered rumours of a blasphemous sect performing strange rites underground, Sir Richard finally realises he must defeat not only the cultists, but the faceless, unstoppable demon that haunts his dreams.
Fans of the Forest Lord series will enjoy this explosive spin-off novella that sees the much-loved English knight up against a foe that threatens his life, his sanity, and even God Himself.
"A fabulous action-filled read that manages to pack an epic punch into a novella-sized story." Matthew Harffy, author of The Serpent Sword
