Beyond a large dowry, he is seeking a virtuous and dutiful wife. Neither Thomas nor Alyce expect more from marriage than mutual courtesy and respect.As the King of Spain launches his great armada and England braces for invasion, Alyce must confront closer dangers from both her own and Thomas's past, threats that could not only destroy her hopes of love and happiness but her life. And Thomas is powerless to help.'People never forget. When the fancy takes them, they bring the old stories out and embroider them further.'</p>. Media Type: eBook.
