Produktbeschreibung

1310, Berwick-upon-Tweed, England - Edward II knights Frederick Kohl for his bravery fighting the Scots. But Sir Frederick is not the man the king believes him to be; instead, it is his sister, Christina, who assumes her dead brother's identity and receives his spurs.

Still posing as Frederick, Christina escorts Lady Cecily, a young noblewoman joining Queen Isabella's court at Westminster Palace, to London. Unexpectedly, Christina and Cecily fall in love. Their joy is short-lived, as their future together is seemingly impossible.

The wife of one of the wealthiest and most influential men in the city is Christina's bitter enemy. Katharine Volker, whose lascivious advances Christina rejects, goads her into voyaging from her London home to the Baltic waters of her birthplace. Christina journeys not to engage in trade, as one would expect of a master merchant. She sails for a far more deadly purpose--to exact revenge on the pirates who killed her father and brother.

What will transpire in London during her absence and is there any hope for her lasting happiness with Cecily?

Christina must employ all her courage and fighting skill, as well as a secret weapon, to survive her adventure quest through pirate infested waters.

Autorenporträt

Lee Swanson has enjoyed a lifelong interest in medieval history, a passion that has found an outlet in the historical fiction novels he writes. He lived in Germany and England for over twenty-five years, first as a soldier and then as a teacher. Awarded a master's degree in European History summa cum laude from the University of North Florida, his thesis centered on the Hansa, a confederation of merchants from primarily northern German cities. Many of the colorful characters who populate his novels are drawn from the lives of these resolute wayfarers who traveled the waterways of Europe in search of profit and prestige.Lee, his wife Karine, and their dog Banjo now split their time between Virginia's Shenandoah Valley and San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.
