The Traitor of Sherwood Forest
An immersive, sultry, heart-pounding historical reimagining of the Robin Hood ballads, told through the piercing eyes of one of his spies.
The Traitor of Sherwood Forest unveils the story of Jane Crowe, an ordinary peasant girl who never dreamed she would work for the infamous Lord of the Greenwood. But when she's forced out of her home, she has no choice but to turn to Robin Hood for helpβand he makes her an irresistible offer. He needs a pair of eyes in the King's Houses, and quiet, unassuming Janeβwho has spent her whole life going unnoticedβwill be the perfect spy.
At first, Jane's work for Robin seems straightforward. She whispers to him about the nobles at King's Houses and all their secrets, including the new Sheriff of Nottingham, who would like nothing more than to see Robin Hood's head on a spike. But the more Jane is drawn into Robin's world, the more she's drawn to Robin himselfβa man as charismatic as he is cunning, capable of plucking at her heart as easily as he notches an arrow.
As Robin's tricks grow increasingly dangerous, and shockingly violent, Jane starts to suspect that her hero cares more about his own legacy than helping the common peopleβand that despite his declarations of affection, he sees her as just another object to be stolen.
When Robin's schemes implicate Jane in a brutal murder, she must decideβis she a prize to be won, a pawn to be used and discardedβor is she an equal player in the game between nobles and thieves?
