Compassionate, thoughtful and perceptive, Kerry is aware that he is different to most other young men. It is only after a series of life-changing events, however, that he realises how different he really is.
This is a story of energy, conflict and danger, defeats and triumphs in 16th and 17th century England and Spain. It is told from the inside, through the thinking and feelings of five protagonists, using contemporary culture and their own writings.
