WHAT WAS LOST
After losing Marion to Holy Orders, Robin spends his waking hours in an increasingly drunken state and the outlaw band are left without a leader. Robin Hood has become a ghost. Meanwhile, Abbot Hugo has cleaned out the family coffers and secured a release for his brother, the Sheriff, from King John's prisons. But the Sheriff isn't convinced that his deadliest enemy has entirely vanished from Sherwood...
THE POWER OF THREE
Why had Herne called Marion to his cavern and not Robin? And why was she afraid to tell him what the Lord of the Trees had shown her? Forced to face his personal nightmares and his darkest secret, the Hooded Man needs his friends more than ever but the outlaws are afraid... and no one knows who to trust. To make matters worse, an old enemy is stalking Sherwood - but which one?

After returning from fighting in Normandy, Sir Guy of Gisburne has reluctantly returned to the Sheriff's employ but his loyalty is about to be tested. The Sheriff's new plan to capture the outlaws requires Gisburne's agreement and Abbot Hugo's committed involvement. Meanwhile, the merry band of Sherwood outlaws are preparing for a long-awaited set of nuptials to take place in Sherwood Forest...

The church lies impotent at the mercy of the Pope and the interdict against the kingdom. With the people living in fear and a series of disappearances that threaten the very fabric of noble society, Robin 'i' the hood and his band of outlaws must race to rescue the past so that the future may be protected...
