Beyond Sherwood (Sherwood Cycle #1) by
Jean-Luc Scathelocke, nephew of the legendary Robin Hood, takes the "opportunity" to free a pair of political hostages. What he didn’t count on is the assassin Malbête, who wants his head, the feisty Romani Tirzah Massimo, who might be more of an ally than a distraction, and Declan Pascal, aka The Scorpion, who may not be everything he seems...The first play in the Sherwood Cycle.
