Lekin, and they steal a relic from the temple - according to rumors, this is nothing more than the Holy Grail... The son of the abbot who died in the battle, the young archer Thomas, not suspecting that he is connected by blood ties with Harlequin, vows to avenge the dead and return the lost, for which is sent to France. However, the powers that be do not intend to cede the shrine to the common people - it can grant victory in the war.

He comes into conflict with religious fanatics, saving the beautiful Genevieve from the fire, and thereby makes new enemies who are hunting for him... A charming hero and the pursuit of a mystical sword - this is a wonderful new novel from a skilled storyteller from Britain, the action of which reaches its climax during the battle of Poitiers in 1356. The Hundred Years' War continues to rage and the bloodiest battles have yet to be fought. Across France, the gates of cities are closing, crops are burning, the country is frozen in anxious anticipation of a thunderstorm. Again, under the leadership of the Black Prince, the English army invaded, victorious in the battle of Crecy, and the French are chasing her. Thomas of Hookton, an English archer nicknamed "The Bastard", is ordered to find the lost sword of St. Peter, a weapon that is rumored to grant any owner permanent victory. When superior enemy forces set a trap for the English army near the city of Poitiers, Thomas, his men and his sworn enemies meet in an unprecedented confrontation that escalates into one of the greatest battles in history. The Battle of Agincourt is one of England's most striking military victories. Immortalized by Shakespeare in Henry V, the unequal battle pitted a small, exhausted English army against a full-blooded French army. At the center of the battle is one of those simple warriors, whose forces achieve an unprecedented victory: archer Nicholas Hook fights for his king, country and the woman he loves... A captivating novel about the war is perceived as both a brilliant historical study and a magnificent fruit of creative imagination - the best creation of Bernard Cornwell, author of the recognized world bestsellers “The Saxon Chronicles”, novels about the shooter Richard Sharpe and many other books.
