The Pillars of the Earth meets Game of Thrones in this intense medieval saga of love, hatred, and survival set against the backdrop of a turbulent kingdom. Elizabeth desires nothing more than a full purse, a warm hearth, and a house to call her own, yet when a bloody coup brings her mistress's house to ruin, the servant girl finds herself hunted by a ruthless knight as she struggles to protect the last surviving daughter of the fallen household. "Skilfully blends romance, political intrigue, and historical drama." "It's not often I get so engrossed in a story that it even affects my moods." "The interactions between all of the characters, the happiness they find in life’s small pleasures and aspirations … and the fear of it being ripped away … makes for heady reading.”
