THE BRAND NEW EDITION OF WOLF OF WESSEX AVAILABLE TO PREORDER IN PAPERBACK - NOW WITH BONUS CONTENT AND A NEW AUTHOR INTRODUCTION!In this powerful historical adventure, one man's solitary existence is shattered when he stumbles on a mutilated corpse deep in the forests of Anglo-Saxon Britain. AD 838, WESSEX. Deep in the forests of Wessex, Dunston's solitary existence is shattered when he stumbles on a mutilated corpse. Accused of the murder, Dunston must clear his name and keep the dead man's daughter alive, all while facing savage pursuers desperate to keep a terrible secret buried. For any hope of victory against the implacable enemies on their trail, he must become the man he once was. The man he promised he would never be again. The Wolf of Wessex must hunt again: honour and duty demand it. 'Dunston is a fantastic creation - old, creaking and misanthropic. The forest is beautifully evoked. A treat of a book' The Times 'A page-turner... Harffy tells a great story' Joanna Hickson 'A breathtaking novel that sweeps the reader into a dark and dangerous world' Paul Fraser Collard
'Harffy is proving himself the rightful heir to Gemmell's crown' Jemahl Evans 'A genuinely superb novel' Steven McKay
