Chatelaine-Mistress of the Castle (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781943492824)

A Saxon girl of noble blood and striking beauty, Judith had been orphaned when her father was killed at the Battle of Hastings in 1066, leaving her at the mercy of a cruel stepmother.

When Raoul "The Hawk" arrives to take ownership of Oakwood, Judith's ancestral home, he is smitten with Judith, and at the tender age of 15, she marries the Norman Lord, even though he is almost twice her age. The newly crowned King, William the Conqueror, faces rebellion throughout England, and Raoul - one of William's favored military commanders - is away from home for much of the time. Left alone in charge of the castle, Judith faces many difficult and often dangerous challenges - not least when Raoul's evil brother, Eustace, plots to attack Oakwood and take it over for his own use.

Will Judith's courage and determination be enough to secure the safety of her home and her family?
