Wolf of Wessex
MATTHEW HARFFY'S UNMISSABLE NEW NOVEL DOMINION OF DUST AVAILABLE TO PREORDER NOW!
AD 838. Deep in the forests of Anglo-Saxon Britain, one man's solitary existence is shattered when he stumbles on a mutilated corpse. A gripping historical adventure from the author of the Bernicia Chronicles.
Accused of the murder, Dunston must clear his name and keep the dead man's daughter alive in the face of savage pursuers desperate to prevent a terrible secret from being revealed.
Rushing headlong through Wessex, Dunston will need to use all the skills of survival garnered from a lifetime in the wilderness. And if he has any hope of victory against the implacable enemies on their trail, he must confront his long-buried past – becoming the man he once was and embracing traits he had promised he would never return to.
The Wolf of Wessex must hunt again: honour and duty demand it.
