The Traitors' Pit by Vm Whitworth
`They call it the Traitors’ Pit. Though others know it by other names: the Heathen Pit. The Thieves’ pit. The Pit of Hell.’ Wulfgar does not believe that his older brother is capable of treason. But Wystan stands accused of plotting to overthrow the King and place his cousin, Athelwald Seriol on the throne. With an invading army gathering force, can Wulfgar exonerate his brother before Wystan suffers a traitor’s death...?
"Whitworth tells her story with some élan but its strength lies particularly in the characterization of the appealing Wulfgar, a civilised man forced to live in a society where violence rules the roost" * The Sunday Times *
