After the death of King Alfred the Great, peace came to Britain - very conditional and fragile, because the country is divided in half. The warlike tribe of the Danes still claims the south of the island, and the Saxons want to appropriate the northern lands. And now the leader of the Danes Knut Longsword violates the border. For what purpose? His squad is small, and this risk seems unjustified. Meanwhile, Uhtred of Bebbanburg, the illustrious commander who once fought on the side of Alfred the Great, commits an unforgivable act, for which he is anathematized, and becomes an outcast. However, wise by experience, Uhtred never expected gratitude from the powers that be. He equips a ship and sails to Northumbria in order to use a cunning plan to reclaim his possessions - the impregnable fortress of Bebbanburg. Southern Britain is left without a reliable defender and is turning into a foothold. A fierce battle is coming between the Danes and the Saxons, and its outcome will determine what name this richly blood-stained land will receive in the centuries ... The seventh novel from the Saxon Chronicle cycle. For the first time in Russian!
