Book Description
Bullied out of her French convent to accompany her cousin, Lady Anne de Vidames, to her wedding in England to Aiden, Thegn of Linsdey, Beatrice is at first bemused, and then torn, by this twist in her fate. Anne's escort, Baron Philip de Brionne, has no love for the Saxons, despite the edicts of William the Conqueror, and he precipitates a massacre! Rescuing Edmund, Aiden's half-brother and newly Thegn on Aiden's death, Beatrice uses her nursing skills to good effect. Except that when Edmund recovers enough to go into hiding, he takes Beatrice along too!
