Sinopse

Christ Church Priory, Canterbury, 990 AD. Orphaned by vikings, Folcwin and his elder brother Aelfwynn have become excellent scribes.
 
Their lives, enlivened by sibling rivalry, are upset by a competition to illuminate a commissioned psalter. After Folcwin is selected the victor, his brother is accused of murdering another competitor, and he escapes. While Aelfwynn begins a patriotic battle against Viking raiders, Folcwin's fame as a scribe increases.
 
Even with their imbalanced fortunes, the paths of the two brothers are bound to cross with powerful kings and strong leaders, including King Aethelred, Thorkell the Tall and Edmund Ironside. But can they overcome the Viking menace?

    Fate made us brothers, loyalty made us family 
     
     
     
    We were only kids when my brothers and I were forced to the streets and into the shadows, harboring a dark secret we had every intention of taking to our graves. That's when a pact was made, a brotherhood formed. 
     
     
     
    We fought, we bled, but in the end we survived. All because one man took in three homeless boys and loved what no one else wanted. 
     
     
     
    Now, years later, the past we thought was dead and buried emerges with a vengeance, bringing a blue eyed angel with it. A woman with no memory, but whose body bares the same unforgivable wounds that are scarred on my very soul. 
     
     
     
    It forges an undeniable bond between us. A connection that will irrevocably shift the relationship between my brothers and me once again, leading us right into a sadistic killer's web of revenge. 
     
     
     
    The time has come to face the very thing we fought to escape. Only this time we aren't helpless kids. This time we will lay the demons to rest once and for all. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    I didn’t think they would find me here. I moved to the small town of Whiskey River three months ago, hoping I would finally be safe from my past. For the first time in a long time, I feel like I can breathe easier. 
    Then I meet the mountain man who makes my breath quicken. And my heart race. 
    He’s my protector – safe in his strong arms. 
    But my past is coming for me… and he might end up paying the price. 
    Cash: 
    The tracks along the treeline were my first clue. I might not have experience with women, but I know my way around the woods. And Hope is not safe living out here alone. 
    And I’m pretty sure that’s my fault. 
    Her stalker knows I have money, and that I’ll pay any price to keep the woman I love safe from harm. 
    But what her stalker doesn’t know is that I plan on making them pay instead.

    Book 6, a continuation of the Tom Gray series. 
    When the body of an MI5 operative is found floating in the Thames, police frogmen find a significant clue nearby: Nikolai Sereyev, an MI5 informer and mid-level player in a Russian criminal organisation. Both men have been brutally murdered. 
    Andrew Harvey is tasked with finding his colleague’s killer, and quickly uncovers a plot to assassinate a visiting dignitary on British soil. No sooner has he scraped the surface of the case than the tables are turned and he becomes a pawn in a game of international brinkmanship that leads all the way to the Kremlin. 
    Harvey’s girlfriend, Sarah, also a secret service operative, is hot on his trail, but when she too becomes compromised, security chief Veronica Ellis knows there is only one man she can turn to. He’s a loose cannon, but she needs his help to rescue her agent and prevent a full-blown international incident. 
    The trouble is, Tom Gray has gone to ground. Finding him is just the beginning.
