Sinopsis

The Spellbinding Second Volume in the Captivating Medieval Arrowsmith Trilogy



“A brilliant sequel to The Errant Hours. The resourceful and ingenious Illesa has become one of my favourite fictional characters. A skillfully woven tapestry of historical fact and captivating story-telling that leaves the reader begging for more adventures.” Karen Maitland
“The skillful crafting of and immersion in a brutal, beautiful, breathing world rife with treachery, disease, and dangers unseen will enchant readers new to the period and delight those who know it well.” Misty Urban – Historical Novel Society
“Rich, intricate and full of ordinary women finding power in a society that seeks always to rob them of autonomy. A fantastic testament to the power of love.”
Manda Scott

England 1294
The country is under siege, threatened by treachery and invasion.

In the Welsh Marches, resentment against crippling taxes and conscription boils over into rebellion. Lady Illesa Burnel, determined to protect her family and home, must find an ingenious way to free her imprisoned husband before Fortune’s Wheel tips them all into death and ruin.

In a peculiar company of pilgrims, armed only with the voice of a siren, the cunning of an actor, a rogue Knight Templar and a weasel, Illesa embarks on a reckless foray into the heart of the enemy’s castle.

This gripping sequel to The Errant Hours interweaves old and new characters in a moving story about the savagery of war, the insistence of love, and the power of illusion.

“This is such a gripping tale that I read it almost in one sitting, and yet the story is well grounded in the realities of medieval life. ‘All the Winding World’ is a great achievement.”
Dr Henrietta Leyser – University of Oxford Historian and author of ‘Medieval Women’
