With King Henry II taking the throne, the long civil war that has ravaged England has finally come to an end. But conflict is now coming from overseas.

And the new king's marriage to Eleanor of Aquitaine is strained--and becomes even more so when he threatens the Church of England and Thomas Beckett.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationDavid Field was born in post-war Nottingham and educated at Nottingham High School. After obtaining a law degree he became a career-long criminal law practitioner and academic, emigrating in 1989 to Australia, where he still lives. Combining his two great loves of history and the English language he began writing historical novels as an escape from the realities of life in the criminal law, but did not begin to publish them until close to full-time retirement, when digital publishing offered a viable alternative to literary agencies, print publishers, and rejection slips. Now blessed with all the time in the world, his former hobby has become a full-time occupation as he enjoys life in rural New South Wales, with his wife, sons, and grandchildren to keep him firmly grounded in the reality of the contemporary world. Nigel Patterson, British audiobook narrator and AudioFile Earphones Award winner, has many credits as a stage, screen, and voiceover actor that influence his powerful characterization across a broad range of genres. A graduate of the University of Oxford, he is fluent in French and Spanish. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
