Discover this action-packed Assassin's Creed Fragments novel about
siblings tested and separated by the bloody carnage of war between
England and Scotland.
Scotland, 1296. The winds of rebellion are blowing.
The wars of independence for Scotland are on the brink of changing the
history of Great Britain.
Under assault from King Edward I, the besieged city of
Berwick-upon-Tweed is delivered into the hands of the English, who
massacre and burn everything in their path.
Aileas and Fillan, 16-year-old orphan twins, get separated on that
horrific night. Aileas is carried away and disappears while Fillan
manages to join forces with a Scottish clan fleeing to the north, into
the very heart of the Highlands. The young man understands that they are
to meet a mysterious group named the Brotherhood of Assassins, the only
ones capable of protecting Fillan from the Order of the Templars, a
group of warriors doggedly pursuing him.
While he tries to find any trace of his sister, Fillan must delve into
his past to understand his true destiny and discover why the birthmark
he carries on his wrist makes him a target for the Order of the
Templars. He must find out why his life is suddenly in danger, just as
the cry for liberty resonates across all Scotland.
