870 AD. The Danes have come to the fens with fire.

When Crowland Abbey burns at dawn, a young copyist monk is trusted with two things he must never surrender: the uncorrupted body of a saint, and a sealed writ he is forbidden to read. He carries them east into a drowned world of reed-cuts and Roman locks - a marsh ruled by nine guardian families, a scheming reeve, and a traitor who trades in murdered messengers.

But the true danger is not the raiders on the horizon. Beneath an ancient grassy barrow, pinned down by centuries of river-water, something waits for the locks to fail. To keep it drowned, a silent man who reads boots as clearly as vellum must do the one thing his order forbids - forge an alliance between the Cross and the old, cold powers of the Soil.

A gothic folk-horror chronicle of faith, water, and the things the fens keep buried.
