Richmond Surrey: Masquerade - Mills & Boon Limited Spine, Boards Bumped; Light Shelf Rub to Boards; Edges Lightly Soiled; Slight Yellowing Due to Age. Masquerade Historical Large Print. BOOK NUMBER: 9401. SYNOPSIS: In the aftermath of Richard III's death at Bosworth, Isabel Hatfield had to contend with the loss of her betrothed, the death of her mother from fever, and tried to rouse her father, Sir Edwin, from the lethargy of defeat and grief. Only the arrival of Sir Adam Westlake, asking succour for Lord Lovell, did that, much to Isabel's annoyance. If she could accept the new world order, with Henry VII firmly on the throne, why must everyone around her still wish to create unrest? To Isabel, Adam was the source of her troubles, but why, oddly, was he also her support and strength? Where would it all end?. Hard Cover. Fine/No Jacket (As Issued). 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
