The Lion Wakes

In the dying days of the 13th century, Scotland is in turmoil at war both with itself and Edward I of England. Sir Hal Sientcler of Herdmanston is caught up in the chivalry and honour, as well as the betrayal and murder of these desperate days. As the rebellion gathers pace, Sir Hal is thrust into the maelstrom of plot and counterplot which shapes the lives of the great and good in both realms – including rebel leaders William Wallace and Robert the Bruce – as well as neighbours who now find themselves on opposite sides of the battlefield.
