Winter Wolves

After the fierce battle at Crcy, not all of the Essex Dogs survived. Some gave their lives to God, others disappeared without a trace. But King Edward leads his army onward to Calais, which, on his orders, must be defended, no matter what it takes for the English soldiers. So the Essex Dogs find themselves under the walls of the French city, where a brutal and protracted siege unfolds. A siege that will last eleven months. How many of Lavdey's men will survive the winter?

For the first time, they do not understand what they are fighting the enemy for and what lies ahead. The Hundred Years' War continues...
