Sequel to The Measure of a Man 1336. Three months ago, petty thief Kit Porter escaped a life of crime and abuse at the hands of Marcus de Crecy, the leader of the notorious outlaw gang, the Sun League. With the help of City Guardsman Alec Weston and his second-in-command, Robert Warren, Kit evaded capture and escaped England. Kit and Alec fell in love along the way, and now all three men are settling into a life of safety in Bruges, Belgium. When he receives news of his mother's failing health, Kit must return to England alone. Old allies aid him again, but Kit faces deception and betrayal at every turn. His dark past catches up with him, and a terrible fate awaits him if Alec, with the help of his friend, merchant Jamie McEwen, cannot get to Kit in time. The conspiracy against them runs deeper than they suspected, and treachery waits in unexpected places. Alec and Jamie don't know who they can trust, and the clock is quickly running out for Kit.
