# Wyntertide - Hardcover

by **Andrew Caldecott** (Author)

**Welcome back to Rotherweird, where an ancient plot centuries in the making is about to come to fruition - and this time the forces of darkness might actually win . . .****"Intricate and crisp, witty and solemn. Line by line, silent and adroit, it opens a series of trap-doors in the reader's imagination"** **\--Hilary Mantel, Man Booker Prize-winning author of _Wolf Hall_**

The town of Rotherweird has been independent from the rest of England for four hundred years, to protect a deadly secret.

Sir Veronal Slickstone is dead, his bid to exploit that secret consigned to dust, leaving Rotherweird to resume its abnormal normality after the travails of the summer . . . but someone is playing a _very_ long game.

Disturbing omens multiply: a funeral delivers a cryptic warning; an ancient portrait speaks; the Herald disappears - and democracy threatens the uneasy covenant between town and countryside.

Geryon Wynter's intricate plot, centuries in the making, is on the move.

Everything points to one objective: the resurrection of Rotherweird's dark Elizabethan past - and to one date: the Winter Solstice.

**Wynter is coming . . .**

### Author Biography

**Andrew Caldecott** is a practising barrister in media law, fantasy novelist, and occasional playwright. His play Higher than Babel was described as impressive by the _Financial Times_ and a bold debut by the _Independent._ Driven by subsequent neglect of his dramatic talents (or by the lack of them), he turned to the fantasy novel and wrote his debut, _Rotherweird_.
