Black February in the year 1383: rain started to fall before Martinmas. Floods brought famine. Famine brought disease. Into this watery world, against a background of plague and the political turmoil of the Hundred Years War, the nun Hildegard is sent across Europe in search of a precious relic, the Cross of Constantine. Strong-willed and independent, she will need remarkable skills to survive such a dangerous quest. For with the English Crown at stake there are many who want her mission to fail - and one, above all, who plans a deadly revenge. Part 2/5, previous part Hangman blind.
