There was one knight, however, who escaped the stake, vowing justice as he watched his innocent brothers die. A Killer on the Loose It is the summer of 1322 and two playmates have uncovered the body of a young girl up on the moors. The body is that of Aline, the ten-year-old daughter of Swetricus, who went missing six years ago.
