About this listen
The beloved second book in The Wild Hunt series: stunning historical detail, beguiling characters and superb storytelling.
A forbidden love takes England to the brink of war …
1126. Heulwen, daughter of Welsh Marcher baron Guyon FitzMiles, has grown up with her father’s ward, Adam de Lacey.
There has always been a spark between them, but when Heulwen marries elsewhere, a devastated Adam absents himself on a diplomatic mission for King Henry I.
When her husband is killed in a skirmish, Heulwen’s father considers a new marriage for her with his neighbor’s son, Warrin de Mortimer. Adam, recently returned to England, is determined not to lose Heulwen a second time.
But Heulwen is torn between her duty to her father and the pull of her heart.
Adam is no longer the awkward boy she remembers, but a man who stirs every fiber of her being—which places them both in great danger, because Warrin de Mortimer is not a man to be crossed and the future of a country is at stake …

Story
Henry V reigned over England for only nine years and four months and died at the age of just thirty-five, but he looms over the landscape of the late Middle Ages and beyond. The victor of Agincourt, he is remembered as the acme of kingship, a model to be closely imitated by his successors. William Shakespeare deployed Henry V as a study in youthful folly redirected to sober statesmanship. For one modern medievalist, Henry was, quite simply, “the greatest man who ever ruled England.”
