Stirling Bridge is a haunting memory for King Edward. When Scottish rebels threaten his northern borders the king acts swiftly to quash it. William Wallace remains a threat and hiding across the seas he sends his hunter to fetch him back. Sir Gerald Warbow is no longer a young man and his frame is not that of a young archer but he is the most trusted of King Edward’s men and he is sent to France to bring back the rebel who has defied him.
