The angels, who have been scheming for aeons, intend to allow neither Thomas Neville nor Hal Bolingbroke to spoil their triumph. Where Neville thought to have choice, he finds only despair, where he thought to find love, he finds only the angels’ entrapments.
England is reeling under supernatural plagues and treachery-driven rebellions. Mankind’s fate rests on the outcome of three battles: Agincourt, where Bolingbroke challenges Philip for Catherine and for France; the sacrificial ground before Joan’s pyre, where Neville must choose between his love for Margaret and the will of the angels; and the Field of the Angels itself - Heaven, where Christ watches ……and waits.
