Publisher's Synopsis
Cast out by his family, Tom Rivers returns to his regiment. To a spymaster like Captain Crafte, Tom's dark and fearless nature is itself a weapon to be turned upon the hated Cavaliers and used to strike at their very hearts. Raw with grief at the death, of his father, Edmund Rivers rejects the peace talks between Parliament and the King. Choosing instead to lead a band of marauders. While Bess Rivers takes the hardest decision of her life: to leave her son and Sheer House and go in search of the one person who might help her re-unite her family.
