Produktbeschreibung

In the shadows of a Welsh castle, secrets buried with a lost prince begin to stir.

In the wake of Prince Arthur's death, Wales stands on uneasy ground. King Henry VII rules with a firm hand, but tensions simmer beneath the surface, especially in the rugged hills near Buckingham's estate, where grief, guilt, and whispers of treason threaten to erupt.

There, the lives of many entwine... Margaret Pole and her husband Richard must contend with the massive debts she incurred while serving at the royal court. Anne Tyrell, wife of an executed traitor, faces the slow erosion of everything she once held dear. Once the lover of Sir Thomas Lovell, the king's feared enforcer, she now lives under royal disfavor, stripped of influence, her estates in jeopardy, and her past a danger she dares not speak aloud.

Lady Anwen cannot forget what she endured... or what she did. After killing Lord Meuric's son in self-defense on a lonely road, he imprisoned and emotionally tortured her until her release. Now free, she lives in seclusion, unable to bear a man's touch. With the help of a mysterious local woman, Anwen begins to learn the art of healing... and the power of secrets.

As the autumn joust approaches, Edward Stafford, Duke of Buckingham, senses growing unrest. And when Lovell arrives unannounced in search of a traitor, the balance of power shifts, and what he uncovers could shatter the fragile peace and uncover the bones of a ghost.

Set in a haunting Welsh landscape during a dangerous time in history, this richly layered Tudor-era mystery blends political betrayal, forbidden love, gothic suspense, and historical intrigue. Perfect for readers who enjoy Philippa Gregory, Alison Weir, and emotionally charged historical fiction with a dark edge.

Autorenporträt

Charity Bishop is funny, quirky, analytical, a little sentimental, and occasionally forgetful, with an offbeat sense of humor, a tendency to like sci-fi, and a storehouse of knowledge about "useless trivia." She gets fixated on learning things, and obsesses over them until she knows everything there is to know about them, then looks for something new to learn. She gets bored with "same-ness," but is good at impartiality and seeing both sides in an argument. In fact, she's likely to argue both sides for the sheer fun of it.

She grew up in the church and was saved at a young age, but re-evaluated and re-dedicated her life to Christ three years ago. Since then, God has encouraged her to trust Him with her life and future which sometimes is an uphill battle for a stubborn girl. As she struggles with understanding His ways along with her characters, He gently reveals the answers. He's her co-author, both in the stories she tells and in her very own story.

Her day job is a magazine editor, and her hobbies (other than writing books) include over-analyzing everything she comes into contact with, vigorously defending various incarnations of Sherlock Holmes against perceived injustices, irritating her friends with theological musings, and MBTI typing fictional characters.
