Greenwood

Beltane night, 1194. Lady Marian Fitzwalter slips into Sherwood Forest in a mask and gives herself to a stranger, the Green Man, beneath the ancient trees.

By morning her best friend, Joscelyn, is missing. Prince John holds Marian's inheritance hostage until she marries one of six suitors by Christmas. And at her door stands William de Wendenal, the High Sheriff of Nottingham and Prince John's enforcer, whose eyes she knows too well.

Robin Hood, her betrothed, is back from the Crusades and swears the Sheriff is the villain. But silver-coated wolf bones are turning up in hex dolls, each one engraved with the name of someone marked to die. A mercenary brotherhood called the Red Vipers is hunting Saxons and Normans alike, and a masked archer with black arrows stalks the woods.

Marian can trust her bow and the old gods of the forest. She cannot trust anyone else.

In Sherwood, the stakes are life, a crown, and her heart.
