Book Description

Sir Hyatt Laidley, rewarded by Prince Edward, is sent to conquer De la Noye. As part of his prize, he claims the dead master's wife Aurelie. Aurelie does not accept her fate quietly, fighting her conqueror with everything she has.

A modern telling of the Patient Griselda myth -- where Griselda is a chaste, above reproach wife whose love and fidelity is tested repeatedly (from "The Clerk's Tale", Canterbury Tales and Plutarch, among others)
