The Seven-Year Flight, (Paperback)

<p>In AD 875, Lindisfarne is no longer safe.</p><p>With war spreading across Northumbria and Danish raiders drawing closer, the community of Saint Cuthbert must abandon the holy island and carry their most sacred treasures into the winter wilderness: the Lindisfarne Gospels, and the body of the saint himself.</p><p>Young Eadwulf is not ready for the road ahead.</p><p>Neither are the monks, farmers, widows, children, guides, and strangers who find themselves drawn into the flight. Through snow, hunger, fear, pursuit, and loss, they must carry more than a coffin. They must carry memory, faith, and one another.</p><p>As the road grows darker, survival will depend not on kings or warriors, but on ordinary hands: a gate opened at the right moment, a rope lent, a bowl of soup shared, a frightened person choosing to take one more step.</p><p>Inspired by the historical tradition of Saint Cuthbert's seven-year wandering, <em>The Seven-Year Flight</em> is a grounded and powerful historical novel of endurance, sacrifice, and the forgotten people who keep history alive.</p>
