A story of love, danger, and political intrigue sure to please history buffs. Frantic over the disappearance of her husband, Tom, taverner Bess Merchet relies on their old friend Owen Archer, captain of York, to find him. Born in Wales, Owen walks a fine line in 1377 York, where competing forces may tear Britain apart. He knows little of Tom’s life before he bought the York Tavern, married Bess 10 years later, and together, turned the inn into a thriving business.
