A woman and a boy are on the run. Behind them ride three men: Michael, Uriel, Samael. Their codenames are those of archangels, but their mission is murder.

Roslyn de Sorules, trained by her master as a singer, or gleemaiden, knows that she is being hunted but not why, only that she must find sanctuary for the child whom she has rescued and now protects. The sanctuary she seeks is Stirrup, the home of Sir Richard Straccan, ex-Crusader, trader in holy relics and general sword of hire.

But Straccan himself is on his travels, far from home, looking for the woman he loves and hopes to marry, now lost to him for more than a year. The trail is cold, and to add to his woes, the Bishop of Winchester has charged him with an extraordinarily tiresome job - escorting an enormous bronze bell north to Durham. At every turn the mission is dogged by calamity.

The fugitive woman and child and the men who hunt them, the vast and unwieldy procession escorting the bell, the quest for Straccan's lost love, all interweave in the hands of this master storyteller into a historical novel of great richness and power.

Sylvian Hamilton's first novel featuring Sir Richard Straccan was 'The Bone-Pedlar'.
