AD 643. Anglo-Saxon Britain. A gripping, action-packed historical
thriller and the sixth instalment in the Bernicia Chronicles.
Heading south to lands he once considered his home, Beobrand is
plunged into a dark world of piracy and slavery when an old friend
enlists his help to recover a kidnapped girl. Embarking onto the
wind-tossed seas, Beobrand pursues his quarry with single-minded
tenacity. But the Whale Road is never calm and his journey is beset
with storms, betrayal and violence. As the winds of his wyrd blow
him ever further from what he knows, will Beobrand find victory on
his quest or has his luck finally abandoned him? Praise for Matthew
