England. 1191. Early summer. In the forests of middle England, a guerrilla war is being waged between corrupt authority and a band of good-intentioned merry men operating outside the law. In the forests of Sherwood, no evil man is safe, in the corridors of Nottingham Castle, no good one is welcome. You know the score, now enough of the clichés. Repeatedly outwitted by the wily Robin, under-appreciated by the treacherous Sheriff, and set on a path of seemingly impossible pursuit of the haughty Lady Marian, Sir Guy of Gisborne has every reason to be frustrated with his lot in life. When a beautiful servant girl crosses his path, he cannot resist the diversion she offers. But who is Lucy Ratcliffe and what does she want of him: a lover, a master or a slave? This new romance tells a tale rarely spoken of in conventional stories of Robin Hood. Prepare to wander into the dark side of Sherwood, and gaze into the eyes of a haunted man, whose heart, he is soon to discover, is as big as his soaring ambition...
