About this ebook

"Here, my friend, take the harp. I am sure you can entertain us with a fine lay!"
For Cædda, a slave on the estates of the monastery t Whitby ruled by St Hild, no words could be more terrible. Escaping to the solitude of a byre, the slave reviews his privileged past before trying to come to terms with the danger that he finds himself in. Where can he find refuge when he has already hidden in the most obscure way that he could?
Can the Lord’s Poet avoid retribution again or is it time to rise to the challenge and embrace his destiny?

The Lord's Poet is set in a number of localities across Britain, most notably Gwynedd, Shropshire, Tamworth and Whitby in North Yorkshire.
