Constantinopolis.
1101.
The fighting never ends.
With his adopted city threatened from both East and West, Edmund, an English warrior in the elite Varangian Guard of the Byzantine Empire, faces plenty of combat. But he is getting old and he is feeling it.
Once Edmund dreamt of leading an army of Englishmen back to England to expel the Norman invaders. Now he dreams of retiring to a monastery. The warrior wants to find some peace.
But this is Constantinopolis, the crossroads of the world and the capital of an Empire. When his Emperor tells Edmund that there is one last task for him, Edmund cannot refuse. Yet how is an Englishman going to safeguard the future of the Empire when even the Emperor of the Romans may not be able to?
In the meantime, Edmund’s wife Irene is hiding something from him.
Once again, Edmund’s body and spirit will be tried to the utmost, with fate throwing up new challenges to the very end. And even if he succeeds, will he find peace at last?
