A novel by

 
 
When young widower and toy soldier maker Nick Tallon buys Twayblade farm, he is hoping for a quiet life in the English countryside with his German Shepherd dog, Karl. What he discovers with skin-prickling alarm is that he has moved into a farm that is the centre of a blood-curdling, three-hundred-year-old feud. The rape of a young wife committed during the English Civil War had been avenged by her officer husband with ferocity, leading to the death of women and children. Within days, the avenger himself had been consigned to a slow and painful death. Now, three centuries later, the officer is stirring in his grave, and in the woods surrounding Twayblade farm the men whose wives and children he had slain are gathering for the final, deadly reckoning.
