You only discover what dangers you can overcome when you're tested to the limit... Tudor England. When Mary Fox is ordered to marry a sadistic older man, she decides instead to str ike out on her own. As a woman in a man's world, no-one expects her to survive, but Mary is determined to prove them wrong. Challenged to return the Broken Sword talisman and so break a centuries-old curse, she soon learns how to scheme, fight and outwit those who would drag her back to a life of servitude. And in doing so, she becomes more than a match for any man. "Diabolically good! What makes this novel irresistibly readable is the emotional energy generated by the main character Mary Fox, her ups and downs, drawing parallels to our present times." Gina Flyvholm "I would highly recommend this book for its entertainment, historical authenticity and value." Philip Appleton Show more
