About This Book

In the fifteenth century, England is shaken to the foundation by the bloody Wars of the Roses fought over the throne between the two rival Plantagenet houses of Lancaster and York. To the intrigue-riddled court of the Lancastrian queen has come a young knight named John Redmond, seeking the hand in marriage of the high-born girl he loves. He gets the chance to wed her, but only at the cost of betraying his
family and his own honor and integrity. John Redmond makes a fateful choice, a decision that leads to murder and tragedy and the loss of the one great love of his life. But in the turbulent times of treachery and civil war in which he lives, Sir John is able to land on his feet. He changes sides and joins the
rebel Duke of York in his bid for the crown of England. He shares the adventures, the danger and hardship of the young prince who becomes King
Edward the Fourth. Along the way he gains wealth, land, and marriage to another beautiful and passionate young noblewoman. The wars end and it seems that John Redmond is set for a life of peace and prosperity and contentment. But then his past returns to confront him. Sir John learns that the choice he made long ago must still be paid for, and the price will be higher than he ever before feared.
