Weaver's daughter, Alys, is struggling to make ends meet after her father's death while trying to look after her widowed mother and her younger sister. Her only hope is the return of her fiancé, Steven, from five years' adventuring. But will Steven still wish to marry her now that she is reduced to penury? In 1349 the Black Death pandemic falls in all its fury upon their village, and Alys learns that compassion and courage are essential to resilience. Yet as her relationship with Steven falters, she discovers that marriage in itself does not engender love. If Steven cannot arouse her, who can?

Autorenporträt
Jane Anstey has been writing since she was a child, having her first story published in the school magazine aged 11. She was born in London, UK, and grew up in Surrey and Oxfordshire, including three years at the University of Oxford, before moving with her husband to Hampshire, where they lived for 25 years. The family then moved to Cornwall, where she was living during the start of the Covid 19 pandemic-hence the setting of Priest-Hole. She loves reading, singing, gardening, and taking the dog for walks, and is active in her local Anglican church
