The Bone Thief
900 A.D. and the Lord of Mercia is dying. His wife, Fleda, fears that his death will allow her brother, Edward of Wessex, to take Mercia and unite both kingdoms by force. She has but one hope – that her secretary Wulfgar, a young man groomed for the priesthood – will succeed in his task to recover St Oswald’s bones.
