The wanton road

When wounded, grieving war-hero Jack Fiskardo arrives in the London of 1639 from the battlefields of Europe, his only wish is to make a life for himself and his two sons different to any he has known. But, in an England on the verge of civil war, a soldier’s past cannot be so easily forgotten. As the country pulls itself apart there are battles to be fought of the heart and mind as much as on the battlefield, and with the reappearance of his first and deadliest foe, Jack is vulnerable in ways he never was before. Escaping who he was may be impossible – but saving those he loves will mean risking everything he has.
