"A vivid and detailed story set during the wars of the roses from the point of view of a cousin of Warwick the Kingmaker. The reader is drawn into the story by the intense realism and wealth of period detail. You can feel the cold and smell the mud! This is a novel with strong history and imaginative fiction set in one of the most controversial and interesting periods for England." - Philippa Gregory
