Two kings. Two nations. One crown. Delve into the heart of medieval Europe with the epic Hundred Years War series. Includes all three books; A Flight of Arrows, A Clash of Lions and The Fallen Sword.
A Flight of Arrows: 1328. After years of civil unrest between England and France, Charles IV dies, leaving no apparent successor. His closest heir to the throne is Edward III of England, but it passes instead to Charles's cousin, Phillip, spurring both countries on to war. 1346. Landing at Normandy, Edward's immense army makes inroads into French territory, burning everything in their path. But the mysterious assassination of an English knight reveals a terrible truth: there is a traitor in their midst. The king charges Simon Merrivale, the Prince of Wales' herald, with solving the case. As the army marches on towards its destiny, at the awesome scenes of the Battle of Crcy, Simon will uncover a conspiracy that goes to the very heart of the warring nations.
A Clash of Lions: 1346. Simon Merrivale is caught up in a new emergency as a powerful Scottish army sweeps into northern England. Joining up with the Archbishop of York, Lord Percy and their forces mustering in the north, Merrivale discovers a new hotbed of treason, as merchants, landowners and soldiers on both sides of the border play off one side against the other. As the Scottish army continues its relentless march, Simon will have to use all his wit and guile to uncover a spy operation so powerful that no throne in Europe is safe
The Fallen Sword: Rejoining the English army laying siege to Calais, Simon Merrivale discovers that the conspiracy against the thrones of England and France has regrouped and gathered force. New allies have joined their ranks, including a dark secret society known as the Pilgrims, and the Holy Roman Empire and the Knights of Saint John have also been drawn in. Merrivale relentlessly hunts the conspirators, in an attempt to finally reveal the turncoat at its heart
A scintillating medieval adventure of warfare and espionage, steeped in years of research, perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, S.J. Parris and Conn Iggulden.

'Unputdownable ... I was blown away.' Angus Donald, bestselling author of the Outlaw Chronicles
'Like one of those exquisite tapestries with interlacing strands in an array of vivid colour [...] a truly enthralling account of the events leading up to Crcy. Compulsory reading for all who enjoy that most fascinating period of English history.' Paul Doherty, author of The Nightingale Gallery
'A rip-roaring story and devilish plot with outstanding historical detail [...] Mackenzie has created a character who will surely take his place in the canon of historical literary detectives.' C. B. Hanley, author of the Mediaeval Mysteries series
'Espionage, treachery and long-buried sins come to the fore in the blood-stained fields of fourteenth-century Normandy. A compelling story of courage and betrayal I loved it.' Katherine Stansfield, author of the Cornish Mystery series
