In ten years of faithful service to the king, he acquires the nickname Sparrowhawk and becomes a real celebrity. Then he finally returns to Brittany, where he discovers that Agnes has meanwhile married a nobleman hated by many. Yann then falls into a cunning trap, which leads to him being charged with murder...
