Elmhurst Park
註釋Kidnapped from her home, four-year-old Esme is terrified for her life. All she wants is to be returned to her parents and her beloved brother James. But she isn’t. Over subsequent years, her life is disrupted and unsettled. Medieval England is fraught with dangers and rebel warfare, and for Esme, tragedy sways her life more than once. But her family never gives up hope, especially her brother and his new friend, Edmund. Their search takes them far and wide but also sometimes tantalizingly close. Times are volatile, and everyone’s lives are challenged. Esme, armed with a sword and bow and arrows, bravely learns to defend herself but, being young and vulnerable, finds herself in the clutches of the jealous and dangerous Lord de Glanville. Will she be rescued and reunited with her family, or will she be forced to marry her captor?
