Dovile (Lithuania) (2010/05/09):
One of Chadwick's earlier books, this is the story of mercenary Joscelin de Gael, the illegitimate son of a promient knight and Linnet de Montsorrel. Linnet's abusive husband dies in an accident and Joscelin is given the care of Linnet's holdings and young son, and marries her. The story then focuses on the after affects of the abuse Linnet suffered at the hands of her now dead husband and father in law, along with the constant plotting of Joscelin's treacherous half brother (the heir) and step mother.
