What it is

Bloomsbury presents Shadows Linger by Glen Cook, read by Toby Longworth.

From international bestseller Glen Cook comes the second book in the chronicles of the Black Company — the series that forever changed the face of fantasy.

The Black Company stands against the rebels of the White Rose. They are tough men, proud of honoring their contracts. The Lady is evil, but so are those who falsely profess to follow the White Rose; the reincarnation of a centuries-dead heroine. Yet some of the Company have discovered that the mute girl they rescued and sheltered is truly the White Rose reborn.

Now there may be a path to the light, even for such as they. If they can survive it.
