Retreating from the corpse-strewn battle ground of Sharpsburg, Casca and his comrades have to fight for survival against growing odds. From the frozen killing slopes of Fredericksburg to the suicidal charge up Cemetery Ridge at Gettysburg, Casca has to use his martial skills learned throughout the centuries to keep his team together.
But nothing faced on the battlefield can compare to the implacable hatred of the Brotherhood of the Lamb and their agent’s efforts to capture him and kill those that he loves. So Casca leads the survivors of his shrinking band out from being trapped behind enemy lines to the final showdown with the Brotherhood where at a Virginia farmhouse no quarter will be given and only one side will emerge alive, and where Casca will finally fight for vengeance and for the sanity of a woman he once loved.
