About this audiobook
Sir Roger Mudstone, mercenary captain of the Company Of The Rose, a band of greedy misfits, thieves and murderers, who fight for whoever will pay them the most coin. Their captain is a man of few morals and even fewer scruples. Twenty years fighting petty squabbles for the French nobility has left behind a trail of death and destruction. The power, land, women and wealth that Sir Roger expected, always seem just out of his grasp. He’s become bad, mad and extremely dangerous to know. A man willing to do the darkest of deeds…..
In far off England, the bishop of Draychester has a message he is reluctantly obliged to deliver into Sir Roger’s hands. One that could change everything for the old mercenary. The trouble is, who in their right mind would dare seek out such a man? Perhaps someone who is, if it really comes down to it, expendable…
M J Westerbone was born in the small industrial mill town of Radcliffe in the old county of Lancashire in England. From an early age he had a keen interest in history fuelled by the fact there were the remains of a ruined medieval manor house (Radcliffe Tower) virtually on his doorstep. Deciding a career in archaeology or as a historian in all likelihood wouldn't pay the bills he focused on IT. He has been the director of an IT and Telecoms business for many years whilst continuing his passion for history by writing historical novels. He is married and lives with his wife in Lancashire.View all by M J Westerbone
