AN ENDLESS WAR.\n\nA BLOOD-SOAKED BATTLEFIELD.\n\nA BAND OF BROTHERS.\n\n\n1347. After a bloody battle at Crécy, the Essex Dogs pick through the wreckage of the fighting – and their own lives.\n\n\nNow the Dogs are sent to attack the soaring walls of Calais where a new siege is beginning. To get home, they must survive in a lawless camp that is deadlier than any battlefield.\n\n\nObsessed with finding the Captain, Loveday is losing control of his men. Romford is haunted by a horrific figure from his past. And Scotsman is spiralling into a pit of drink, violence and self-pity.\n\n\nThe Dogs are being torn apart – but this war is far from over. It won't be long before they lose more of their own…\n\n\nFrom a vast siege camp built outside Calais' walls, to pirate ships patrolling the harbour, and finally into the darkest corners of oligarchs' houses inside a starving city, this captivating and darkly comic story brings the fourteenth century vividly to life. A searing tale about merchants, money and the medieval 'deep state', this is a must-read for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Conn Iggulden.
