Uhtred marries Mildrith, Odda’s goddaughter, on the King’s recommendation and becomes an Aelderman. After the marriage, he discovers that she is heavily in debt to the church, and that he is now responsible for the debt. Alfred refuses to cancel the debt. Around a year later Mildrith is expecting a baby and Young Ragnar is marching with an army through Wessex. Uhtred informs the King, who then leads an army to Werham (Wareham) to stop the invasion that is being led by Guthrum (now King of East Anglia) and Ubba. But Ubba leaves for Ireland after learning of the death of his brother, Ivar, thereby weakening Guthrum’s army. Alfred and Guthrum agree on a peaceful withdrawal of the Danes from the fortress of Werham and Wessex. Uhtred is given to Guthrum as one of the hostages exchanged on both sides to guarantee the peace. In the fortress, Uhtred is reunited with Young Ragnar and Brida. Mildrith gives birth to a baby boy. When Uhtred learns that Ubba has returned from Ireland, he escapes from Werham with Ragnar’s help and sends Alfred news of Guthrum’s planned betrayal of the truce.
A cunning tactical play by King Alfred keeps Uhtred close at heel, but it’s not long before Uhtred realizes he’s been tricked and his relationship with the King hits a new low. Meanwhile, a great battle looms over Wessex.
