As the fading King Edward begins to lose control over his successors and their supporters, Uhtred of Bebbanburg finds himself caught in the middle of a bitter struggle for power.

Despite attempts at pulling him into the political fray, Uhtred's only loyalty is to his beloved Northumbria and its independence from southern control.
