About Across the Dark Water:

Maybe there’s treason in us all…

1415. The armies of England muster in Southampton, preparing to launch Henry V’s invasion of France. But Scrope of Masham has discovered a dark plot that threatens to unseat Henry and change the course of history. Scrope, loyal to his king, intends to reveal all, but as he uncovers more, at Itchen Ferry, he is pulled across the dark water. Pulled so far he may not come back alive.

Across the Dark Water has been specially commissioned to tell the story of the Southampton Plot.
