A reluctant princess, a dangerous mission and a shameful family secret. A stunning debut novel of intrigue and betrayal set in Medieval Europe.
The wily Eleanor of Aquitaine, the former queen of both France and England, sends her former ward, Alais, the sister of the King of France, to retrieve a cache of letters hidden in Canterbury Cathedral. In return Eleanor promises to reveal to Alais a long-held and dangerous secret.
Alais can't resist. But before she can complete the mission she is kidnapped, and this sets troubling events in motion. It will require all of Alais's considerable strengths and help from the very intriguing head of the Knights Templar to unravel the secrets and unmask some very evil villains.
'The Lost Letters Of Aquitaine' is peopled with real historical characters, but has a sensational fictional plot about the lost heir to the throne. A solidly researched historical novel and a story of spine-tingling suspense - just what readers of history and mystery are looking for.
