Synopsis

Perfect for fans of CJ Sansom, SW Perry, SJ Parris and SG Maclean …
Her father is in Newgate gaol for murder. Landry is there for reasons of his own, but somehow the two end up in conspiracies they couldn’t have imagined. When visiting her father in Newgate, for killing his wife, Wren cannot possibly know that this will be the first of many trips to the gaol. Medieval life has a way of throwing Wren into the strangest situations, not only strange but often deadly.
Landry is unknown to Wren, but when events bring him to her life, he seems to be around at every turn. Is he another murderer, a thief or something more? Wren doesn’t know what to think or who to trust, but she will have to find out quickly, or her stepmother won’t be the only one murdered.
What readers are saying:

• "you want to savour every meticulously crafted sentence. Barbara Gaskell Denvil is not one of those authors who cuts corners. Her opus weighs in at 400+ pages, and there is not a gram of flab."
• “An understanding of medieval life that hints that the knowledge comes from reincarnation or – as I safely suspect – impeccable research.”
• "I know no other author who so completely manages to drag me back in time, leaving me submerged in a past skilfully brought to life."
• "I love that while the story itself was fiction, the author was able to make it historically accurate. This book is full of twists and turns. Espionage and intrigue all mixed in to one of the best romance novels I've read for some time."
• This is a wonderfully written book! It's an historical romance, as well as an arson and murder mystery. It's a testimony to the fragility of life in the dark ages. Now, if I Just had the recipe for Apple codlings that Emeline loves, I'd be all set!
