Overview

1588. The Spanish fleet is gathering and as the militia to fight the invaders train at her family manor of Athelhampton, Anne, now nearly fourteen, exchanges betrothal rings with Anthony. But after he recruits hired ruffians for a mysterious night-time assault on a coastal port and commands her to keep away, she starts to wonder if she has made the right decision. Then she meets the charming Henry - whose mansion is surrounded by fields of roses spreading out as far as the eye can see... Helped by her hunting-hound Urian and her friends Lizzie and Robert, Anne embarks on a quest to uncover the secret that makes men risk their lives to seize a small harbour. She travels to great houses and castles, to a strange manufactory, and to the Winchester Assizes where an innocent man faces an unjust fate. As she starts to understand what lies beneath Henry's charm, she also learns about what friendship means for her, about her true feelings for Anthony - and what she is prepared to do when what she really cares about is threatened. Set in Tudor Dorsetshire, this is the third volume in the Anne of Athelhampton trilogy.
