A young knight reluctant to obey. A murderer sworn to secrecy. A dangerous truth drenched in blood.

At age eleven, Argyle dreams of chivalry and adventure. But when a most unlikely adversary kills Argyle’s master, he is forced to realise that real life is a far cry from his childhood fantasies.

Reluctantly, Argyle accepts a royal command that sends him on a dangerous quest for the truth. He must succeed to untangle his family from a bloody power struggle. But the more he learns, the more he doubts what he knows. One thing is undeniable: If he reveals all, a dynasty will collapse.

Mette Holm

Mette Holm is a writer of historical fiction focusing on last of the Plantagenet rulers beginning with Richard II. The Mowbray family caught her eye when she was first researching the age and especially Thomas Mowbray was so fascinating, she simply had to write about him and the Mowbray family. This led to the series The Mowbray Chronicles that count among others Blood of the Unicorn and Court of Deadly Whispers.

Mette Holm has been telling stories all her life, be it in school, at university or even in her day-job as an independent business owner and copywriter. While historical fiction holds a special place in her heart, a yet unfinished fantasy manuscript occupies her top drawer and rumour has it that it will in time be dug out and finished. As a quirk despite her Danish heritage, she knows more about medieval England than she does about Danish medieval history.
