In the beginning of the bloody 11th century, young Ulf is taken hostage by King Aethelred.
While treachery and plotting threaten uneasy alliances, and ambitious rivals attempt to seize power for themselves, Ulf learns to enjoy his new life of luxury and opportunity.
When his own life is threatened, Ulf sets on a quest to bring peace to the Baltic states. But can he overcome divided loyalties and religious clashes, and make the choice between power and morality?
Chapter 1
John Broughton was born in Cleethorpes Lincolnshire UK in 1948: just one of the post-war baby boom. After attending grammar school and studying to the sound of Bob Dylan, he went to Nottingham University and studied Medieval and Modern History.
He decided to take up writing again late in his career. The fruit of that decision was his first historical novel, Die for a Dove, an archaeological thriller, followed by The Purple Thread and Wyrd of the Wolf. Both are set in his favourite Anglo-Saxon period.
