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.

About the Author

Barbara Gaskell Denvil is the great-great-great grandniece of Elizabeth Gaskell and was herself a successful writer for years in England, publishing numerous short stories and magazine articles, working as a critic and feature writer, a book and television script editor and as a publisher’s reader. However, she temporarily abandoned her career in order to live on a boat and sail the Mediterranean for nearly 20 most interesting years. Now widowed, she lives in rural Australia, and, with increasing passion, has turned to writing full length novels.
