The Harrowing has begun. As towns and villages disappear under the Norman yoke, five travellers fleeing ahead of this advance are drawn together as refugees in their own country, journeying through an wasteland to seek sanctuary in the last Saxon stronghold. But are they fleeing the Normans or their own troubles? Priest, Lady, Servant, Warrior, Minstrel: each has their own story; each their own sin. As enemies past and present close in, their past deeds catch up with them and they discover there is no sanctuary from fate. ER -
