England, 1349. Sir Hugh de Grey, the Pale Knight, returns from war to find a land ravaged by the Black Death, and his son dying of the plague. When he prays to God to save his son’s life, it is not God who answers—but Death himself. And Death is willing to cut a deal.
These are the strangest of times. An innocent called Elwyna is to be burned as a witch. Sir Hugh de Grey must save his son from the nightmarish Dance of Death. Aaron of Albi seeks plague toxin from the bubo of a corpse. In part three of The Pale Knight, there is madness and poison in the air. And in the hearts and minds of men.
