Winter siege
\"Run, run, girl. In the name of God, run. 1141. A mercenary watches from the icy reeds as a little girl with red hair is attacked by his own men. He is powerless to stop them. But a strange twist of fate brings them together again. Sheltering in a church, he finds the girl freezing cold, close to death, clutching a sliver of parchment. And now he is certain of what he must do. He will bring her back to life. He will train her to fight. And he will protect her from the man who calls himself a monk, who lost a piece of parchment he will do anything to get back. An epic account of the brutal winter when Stephen and Matilda tore England apart in their battle for its crown-- when atrocities were inflicted on the innocent, but bravery found a home in an old soldier and a young girl\"-- Provided by publisher.
