An exciting sequel to 'The Greatest Knight', centred around William Marshall, probably the greatest knight of the Middle Ages. A crusader, and the only knight ever to unhorse the legendary Richard Coeur de Lion, William Marshal's courage and steadfastness are rewarded by the hand in marriage of Anglo-Irish heiress Isabelle de Clare, eighteen-year-old ward of the King and a great heiress.
Strangers to each other on their wedding day, William and Isabelle must immediately confront deadly political intrigue, strained family loyalties and betrayals, as well as learn to love and support each other. As King Richard prepares to depart on crusade, other men, including the King's own brother John, are awaiting their moment to seize power, and it is William's duty to stand in their path.
