Aprašymas
A sultry, immersive, and heart-pounding historical reimagining of the Robin Hood ballads, told through the piercing eyes of one of his spies Jane Crow spends her long days working hard, trying to make ends meet for her family. When her mother takes a new man, abruptly abandoning Jane, her lover Bran offers to take her to the woods to walk a new path--that of the infamous Lord of the Greenwood: Robin Hood. While no one else has ever seen Jane for much of...well, anything, Robin sees her quiet, unassuming nature for all its potential. He needs a spy in the King's Houses; Jane accepts. At first, her work for Robin seems straightforward enough: observe and report on the various nobles who make their way through the King's Houses, including the new Sheriff of Nottingham, who would like nothing more than to see Robin Hood's head on a spike. But the more Jane is drawn into Robin's world, the more she's drawn to Robin himself: a man as charismatic as he is cunning, capable of plucking at her heart as easily as he notches an arrow. As his schemes get increasingly complex--and shockingly violent--Jane starts to suspect that Robin's good deeds have a darker edge: that he may care more about cementing his own legacy than he cares about the common people. And that, despite his declarations of affection, she might be just another game to him. Another object to be stolen. When Jane is caught spying, her life or Robin's on the line, she must decide: is she a prize to be won, a pawn to be used and discarded--or is she an equal player in the game between nobles and thieves?
