What will become of the estate? Amos and Lord Marston's son had been friends, but Crispin hasn't been seen for 40 years and no one knows if he's still alive. As the estate disintegrates, Amos finds himself inexplicably haunted by the Marston ghosts and an uncanny parallel with the medieval tale of their past. Merely finding the rightful heir won't be enough to save his village Amos must also determine how the legend ended.
