In the unforgiving land of ancient Caledonia, a bloodline of chieftains rises up against insurmountable challenges. From brutal tribal clashes to powerful Roman invaders, they wage war to protect their sacred land, guided by the wisdom of mystical druids and the formidable will of old gods. With Roman walls slicing through their homeland, Lachlan — heir to the legendary Calgacus - must unite the tribes and harness ancient magic to resist the invaders. Aided by divine visions and a mythical warhound, Lachlan emerges as a warrior destined to lead his people.

As the old gods are eroded by the new church and and ambitious men vie for power, blood is shed throughout the land. In the south, ealdorman Aelfhere believes that for his only daughter, 16-year-old Cynethryth, marriage to a Saxon king is the way to security. And so, against her own wishes, Cynethryth is betrothed. Yet as battle rages around her, Cynethryth too becomes a victim of war. Taken prisoner by the warrior invaders, she is forced into the presence of another Saxon king, who would also have her for his wife. A man she actually loves.

John Broughton's Expulsion is a historically accurate, riveting adventure set in the medieval times, where riches and power are in the reach of the resourceful, and death is always just one step away.
