In the middle of this Much and Robin are captured by the enemy to be sold into slavery. Robin as a noble can buy his own freedom but Much remains captive unless Robin finds a way to free him. Robin does, of course, save him in a very dangerous and risky coup and they return to see the fall of Accre.
Still, tension runs high between Richard and Phillip of France while Richard contemplates marrying his sister to Saladin's brother.
In the meanwhile Much befriends the Knight Templar Thomas who is no less reckless than Robin but still confuses Much a lot more than his master ever did.
