AD1399.
One small town in Northumberland.
One castle contract. Two apothecaries.
Civil war is brewing. Usurpation, rebellion, betrayal, even black magic; these are hard times for the English people. Harder yet for near-destitute apothecary, Harry-the-Cough. Fleeing persecution and trumped-up murder charges, Harry is hunted by the law, jovial cutthroats, confused outlaws and an assassin who cannot die. When a suspected witch with a chequered past and a girl with a chequered present risk life and limb to save him, he is too busy running for his life to question why.

AD1399.
One small town in Northumberland.
One apothecary. Two robberies.
Summer AD1399. Sir Ralph is now running Warmstirrup, while his brother – and Harry-the-Cough’s sponsor, Lord Henry – is away in the south, embroiled in a civil war to supplant Richard II with Henry Bolingbroke.
By trying to help a friend, Harry becomes involved with an illegal coin counterfeiting ring and risks everything to bring only the guilty to justice – before Sir Ralph hangs him, as the finale to the revels at Warmstirrup’s Summer Fayre. Desperate to keep his new wife out of danger, Harry has problems enough, without constant berating from Insane Alice, his mum’s ghost.
