A remarkable sword is forged in Anglo-Saxon England, but treachery surrounds its creation and gives the weapon a legacy of dishonour. As ownership changes, the sword becomes evidence of status, violence and unresolved crime.
Successive stories carry the weapon through different periods, where its history is forgotten, rediscovered or deliberately falsified. The collection examines the human motives attached to a prestigious artefact, showing how pride and shame can survive long after the original bloodshed has passed out of memory.
