[Of Witches and Werewolves 03] • The Beast Within

In late 16th century Germany, the city of Bedburg is reeling from the recent werewolf and witch trials, while a despotic lord rules his people with an iron fist. No one is safe from suspicion or persecution. Until an unlikely hero steps forward -- a former priest working in secret to rescue as many lives as possible.

Meanwhile, across the sea in England, a young woman escaping from the turmoil in Germany bands together with other refugees to start a new life in a new village.

But each one’s quest for justice and lost family members draws them back to the chaos and tyranny they left behind -- where tyrants kill the innocent, friends betray allies, families question allegiances, and armies slaughter in the name of God.

The Beast Within chronicles an improbable group of misfits -- a priest, a pirate, a magician, a whore, a thief, a beggar, and others with nothing in common but good souls -- willing to face pure evil no matter the odds.
