Cade had property somewhere on the islands and it is likely that the treasure could lie hidden there, its value enough to fund the Royalist cause for years. He is ordered to follow the golden trail to the Scilly Isles off the south-western tip of England. Stryker, captain of a band of loyal and brave royalists, continues to chase the Cade treasure that he learned of, at great cost, in the previous novel, Assassin’s Reign. The result is a particularly thrilling and tense historical adventure in which not only our heroes must suffer but also all of the land as the Civil War moves into another phase of its wrath. Captain Stryker and his men, as well as Lisette, the Queen’s spy, must suffer the consequences here of what has gone before.
Warlord’s Gold is the fifth novel in Michael Arnold’s fabulous Civil War Chronicles – if you’ve not read the earlier novels then tread no further.
