Years ago, young Robert Fenner was forced into marriage
with Lady Blaunche. Now, in 1442, he is being forced
toward warfare over the property to which she wrongfully
claims ownership. To make matters worse, a wealthy young
heiress has captured hearts on both sides of the feud—
including his—and it is up to Robert to decide whom she
will marry.
Drawn from her nunnery’s contemplative quiet by Lady
Blaunche’s need, Dame Frevisse is caught up among the
passions of a man desperate for what he cannot have; a
powerful knight blocked from what is rightfully his; and a
young woman trapped in the eye of the storm. Who will see
that justice is done after honest love and dishonest lust
spawn anger, greed, and finally…murder?
