About the book:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Scottish Wars of Independence, 1297. Scottish resistance has been crushed, and King Edward, Hammer of the Scots, now rules the North.<\/em>
Doesn\u2019t he?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Chester Castle, young apprentice armourer Harry has no idea just how much his life is going to change from the moment he is told to guard an imprisoned Scottish 
nobleman: the rebel Andrew de Moray. The boy\u2019s momentary carelessness gives the prisoner all he needs: an opportunity to escape. Harry finds himself kidnapped, and on his way to Scotland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon, he is caught up in the Northern Rising with its skirmishes and stealth attacks. But these are nothing to the storm of questions in Harry\u2019s mind: Whose cause is right? Why has his new master joined forces with the outlaw William Wallace? Can his new friend 
Euphemia be trusted?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As arrows fly and swords clash at the battle of Stirling Bridge, Harry must choose: Whose side is he on?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
