Europe, 1543. Former English spy Iron William Kidd is neck-deep in trouble.

While building a new life in exile, a fight gone awry leaves William with mutilated hands. Soon after, the Church holds his life to ransom, tasking him with finding the mythical Tears of Christ. The price of failure is his head.

Faced with the impossible, most men would submit to the executioner's axe. William Kidd is not most men.

This is an action-adventure, historical fantasy and thriller set at the dawn of organised spying and espionage, where every country has secret agents hunting for this ancient prize.

For the victor, The Tears hold a secret that will change the world forever. For Iron William Kidd, finding them first is his only hope of keeping his head attached to his shoulders.
