A deadly war. A secret union. One last plea to keep an innocent man alive...
England, 1485. Alex can't survive another crushing defeat. In the bloody chaos of the civil war, he lost both his father and his King. But after the final retreat, he finds new hope for the future when he rescues a noblewoman in disguise. Signing on as her servant may be his only option in a world turned upside down... until a deadly accusation threatens his very life.
Without the brave soldier who saw through her disguise and led her to safety, Lady Katherine would have joined the fallen bodies. After the dust of battle clears, she returns home to find the enemy's pennant flying overhead and an unfamiliar lord demanding her hand in marriage. But her grim new fate almost seems bearable with her brave friend at her beck and call.
But when Alex faces the gallows, Lady Katherine must make an impossible choice: retreat behind the safety of her castle walls or risk everything to plea for his life.
Satin Cinnabar is a rollicking historical mystery set in 15th century England. If you like tenacious characters, rich details, and twists you won't see coming, then you'll love Barbara Gaskell Denvil's story of starting over in the ruins of war.
