Praise for the author

ANNE

O’BRIEN

‘The characters are larger than life…and the author

a compulsive storyteller. A little fictional embroidery

has been worked into history but the bones of the

book are true.’

—Sunday Express

‘O’Brien has excellent control over the historical

material and a rich sense of characterisation, making

for a fascinating and surprisingly female-focused look

at one of the most turbulent periods of English history.’

—Publishers Weekly

‘Better than Philippa Gregory’

—The Bookseller

‘Anne O’Brien is fast becoming one of Britain’s most

popular and talented writers of medieval novels. Her

in-depth knowledge and silky skills with the pen help

to bring the past to life and put the focus firmly on

some of history’s most fascinating characters.’

—Pam Norfolk, Lancashire Evening Post

‘Anne O’Brien is definitely an author to watch for

historical fiction fans and I look forward to

reading more of her work in the future.’

—One More Page…

‘Ms O’Brien’s prose is smooth and uncomplicated.

Her characters’ speech is not overburdened with

archaic expressions, yet still evokes the time period.

She has obviously done a good deal of research and it

makes this story pleasurable to someone like myself,

who loves all things medieval…’

—Cynthia Robertson, Literarydaze
