"Wolf's Head: 1911" by Mary Noailles Murfree is a haunting and thrilling adventure story that takes a different look at the classical Robin Hood tale. The scheming of the church, earls, and barons for political gain and wealth in a time of upheaval from within and on the borders of a kingdom leads to a time of turmoil for the poor. With a weak king and a hero who is struggling to survive, this tale is a captivating adventure.
