"A beautiful synthesis of Robin Hood legends" from the national bestselling author of the Blood & Bone series (Marion Zimmer Bradley, New York Times-bestselling author).
With her king a captive and her coffers drained, England is left in turmoil during the Crusades. After the death of her father in the Holy Land, Lady Marian of Ravenskeep finds herself alone-and at the mercy of men vying for her lands and her beauty. Thrust into games of political intrigue, the sheltered knight's daughter soon learns to trust no one . . .
Afforded a hero's homecoming, Sir Robert of Locksley returns from the Crusades a shattered man. In a country he barely recognizes, one torn apart by treachery and betrayal, he finds in Marian a kindred soul. Their quest for justice will take them into the depths of Sherwood Forest, where the dream of a new England will be born . . .
"Lively storytelling and pacing help make Roberson's impressively mature first novel an enjoyable, almost creditable recasting of the Robin Hood legend as historical fiction . . . The romance works beautifully, capturing in the tale of Robin and Marian the terrifying bliss of first love. A diverting, delightful book from a most promising talent." -Publishers Weekly
"An imaginative and riveting novel, impossible to put down." -Booklist
"Robinson expertly evokes the sensations and frustrations of medieval life." -Kirkus Reviews
