Amid such fateful events, the murder of a Welsh peddler’s daughter seems small.

Yet can he bring Melangell’s craven killer to justice? 3- Dragon’s Lair: Dust Jacket has light edge rubbing. Book is Like New. Signed on 2nd free paper.

His mother, Dowager Queen Eleanor, ransacks England for gold to buy his freedom, while his younger brother, John, plots with King Philippe of France to ensure that he rots and dies in chains. When a ransom payment vanishes, Eleanor hastily dispatches young Justin de Quincy to investigate. In wild, beautiful Wales, his devotion to the queen will be supremely tested–as an arrogant border earl, a cocky Welsh prince, an enchanting lady, and a traitor of the deepest dye welcome him with false smiles and deadly conspiracies. The queen’s treasure is nowhere to be found, but assassins are everywhere . . . and blood runs red in the dragon’s lair If you have any questions, please convo. Thanks!
