Ryland

Sir Ryland, his brother Sir Markes, and the widowed Lady Kate struggle to survive as King Henry VIII and his Chancellor's men seek to destroy them. Ryland must kill his brother's sons and take back his lands, or become their Regent and mentor, only to have them take what is rightfully his. Sister Mary Andrea is torn between Sir Markes and her vows as a bride of God as the King sacks the abbeys and monasteries of England. Power and status reign, and love is forfeit as death and sacrifice climax in actions that alter our future.
