The myriad difficulties and colourful details of early Tudor times are vividly portrayed in this book. From the royal court to the dungeons of the Tower and from the vast chill of Sumerford Castle in Somerset to Execution Hill in London, the late medieval is brought back to life in all its beauty, filth and complexity. This turbulent period of history serves as the violent but compelling background to the lives of the Sumerford brothers, and in particular to Ludovic’s path from obscurity towards the changing fortunes of great love, national loyalty, family responsibility and finally happiness.

Now widowed, she lives in rural Australia, and, with increasing passion, has turned to writing full length novels.
