KNIGHT OF SECRETS (Knights Of Passion Series 2) - Plot & Excerpts
It was afternoon and growing dark already; the days were short now. She’d been out gathering berries and digging in the snow for green leaves, anything fresh, that could be used in this bleak part of the Northern English winter when the household seemed to exist on salted or cured meats and last seasons’ withered apples. Her heart beat harder as she stood up, her basket tucked over her arm, her gloved hands wet and dripping snow. The hem of her skirts was damp too and her face was stinging with cold beneath the furred hood of her cloak. It had snowed overnight and now the air was frigid, icicles hanging from the bare branches of the trees. Not a sign of life. Apart from Edwina. And the men she could hear fighting down in the valley that lay beyond the manor house. A tingle of terror raised the hairs on the back of her neck. They were Scots. The Scots raided regularly over the border these days, and since King John had come north in his attempt to swallow up the power of the northern barons, the raids by his friends the Scots had become more frequent.
