Out of Shadows

A killer haunted by blood and death, plagued by a lifetime of bad decisions; Brennan Redhands is a failure.

When his daughter Gwenna is abducted Brennan will stop at nothing to save her, and must again carve a bloody path across the brutal land he once fled. 

 

But a secret festering in the recesses of Brennan’s mind is tearing him apart and a magic has awoken in Gwenna that threatens the whole world. With old feuds that refuse to die, an ancient sword that has a will of its own, and an insane boy warlord hell-bent on the apocalypse; it seems all are determined to get in Brennan’s way. 
 

Yet the most terrifying enemy of all is the voice in his head - if he can’t put that down - the world will fall to darkness.
