Description

Thomas of Hookton is on a perilous quest to find the grail, the most sacred relic of Christendom. Pursued by his deadliest enemy, Guy Vexille, Thomas leads a campaign of raids in the south of France, drawing his enemy to his arrows. But when his fortunes change and his campaign is destroyed by the church, Thomas finds himself hunted and alone. With only one companion, a girl condemned to burn as a heretic, Thomas seeks refuge in the valley of Astarac, where he believes the grail may still be hidden. As he navigates a deadly game of hide and seek with his enemy, a deadly plague erupts in Europe, making the grail's significance more urgent than ever.
