Publisher Comments:

Cecilys father has ruined her life. Hes moving them to occupied Wales, where the

king needs good strong Englishmen to keep down the vicious Welshmen. At least

Cecily will finally be the lady of the house.

Gwenhwyfar knows all about that house. Once she dreamed of being the lady there

J. Anderson Coats has masters degrees in history and library science. She lives with her family
