England in the closing days of the reign of King John is brought vividly to life by one of our finest historical novelists. Despite having signed the Magna Carta and made promises to mend his ways, there is still great dissatisfaction with King John's rule. Among the rebellious nobles is young Nicholas de Caen. While fighting John's troops, he is captured, but during the trip back to be questioned, the treacherous marshes cause trouble and Nicholas and King John's treasure are both lost. Nicholas is injured and ends up at a nunnery where he is nursed by Miriel of Wisbech.
'The best writer of mediaeval fiction currently around' - HISTORICAL NOVEL REVIEW 'Elizabeth Chadwick knows exactly how to write convincing and compelling historical fiction' - Marina Oliver 'Chadwick is a prize-winning novelist who does not romanticize what was often a dangerous and brutal time...Intelligent, enjoyable and entertaining' - LIBRARY JOURNAL
Much of Elizabeth Chadwick's research is carried out as a member of Regia Anglorum, an early medieval re-enactment society. She also tutors in the skill of writing historical and romantic fiction. She won a Betty Trask Award for THE WILD HUNT, her first novel.
