AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'In fourteenth-century Europe, the first wave of devastation from the Great Plague is just ending. Soldier-turned-monk Thomas Neville has received his latest marching orders from the Archangel Michael, who has given Neville the divine mission of tracking down an army of demons posing as ordinary human beings and plotting a war on humanity and heaven. Now Neville sheds his cassock to join the ranks of English estate owners and infiltrate the society of power brokers, in which the demons remain cloaked. It is becoming less and less clear whom he can trust, or even whether he is on the right side of good and evil.' (Source: LibrariesAustralia)

Notes
-
Dedication: The Wounded Hawk is for Diana Harrison who first opened the way into parallel worlds across my kitchen table one damp Saturday afternoon in Bendigo (our way aided, as always, by a few good glasses of wine).
