Nottinghamshire England 1191 A.D. William Brewer, High Sheriff of Nottinghamshire, had been plotting and panning his careful but brilliant political coup for almost four years now. He was so close to getting that drunkard fool of a Prince, John, to just hand him the title of Regent he could almost taste it. Now however, he has returned home to Nottingham Castle, to find a four thousand year old Risen corpse in his dungeon and Lord Rathbone, the most powerful man in the country outside of the Royal family, is the one who dropped her off. What's worse, the Risen turns out to be Anya First, the Queen of the vampires; and she doesn't plan on being held captive for long. Thinking on his feet, Brewer managed to arrange a deal with the undead, that just may get him the crown of England, but for that to succeed he will need some help and a whole lot of Luck. First he will need to get Prince John to help him, then place his trust in the vampire Queen and finally outsmart one of the few things on earth even more dangerous than the Risen herself...her Father. The plans are made, the traps are ready, the French mercenaries and the Prince are on the way to Nottingham and now, to top it all off, the Sheriff must deal with another dangerous foe; the 'wolfshead' Robin Hood and his shape-shifting band of outlaws and Irish werewolves With unstable loyalties and secret motives abound, no one is harmless. Fur and fangs are sure to fly when ancient adversaries and political foes square off for the battle to control medieval England.
