1314. Northumberland, England, during the time of the Scottish wars
of independence. A time of lawlessness and suffering, when every
man must look to what he believes are his own best interests. Young
Walt Radulf of Syhale Manor gains his knighthood. He continues his
father's practice of spying for the enemy king, Robert de Bruce, as
a way of paying ransom to avoid the worst ravages of Bruce's cross
border raids on homes and livestock. Walt would do almost anything
to maintain his lands and wealth and realise his father's dream of
building a fortified tower house on their extensive estate to the
west at Bytilsden. His involvement with Bruce, much to the
displeasure of his beautiful wife Katherine, eventually becomes so
entangled that he puts his whole estates and family in jeopardy,
and must fight not only to keep his lands but to keep his head on
his shoulders.
