When the elderly Lord de Verney is killed in battle, his beautiful widow Rosamund finds herself at the mercy of Sir Ralph Aycliffe, a powerful knight who will stop at nothing to humiliate her and seize her property. He will not rest until he has enslaved her beyond hope of redemption. But there's a young squire about to come to the rescue. Geoffrey Lymington will risk everything to save the woman he has loved for a single night. Against the turbulent backdrop of the Wars of the Roses, the battle for Rosamund unfolds. Who will prevail in the struggle for her body?
