A king is dying, and he decides to divide his barely united kingdom between his two sons. But each of the half-brothers claims all of England for himself. Uhtred, the warrior, leaves his home in the north to stand by the elder, Æthelstan. An oath binds him, yet he suspects that both hostile brothers dream of annexing his beloved Northumbria to the empire as well. The battle for the English crown is decided in London.
And then Uhtred suffers the greatest defeat of his life: he is captured and loses Snake's Breath, the sword that has accompanied him in all his battles ...
