An honourable estate

England, 1315. Famine and unrest are spreading across the country, and when Sir William Bradshaigh joins Adam Banastre's rebellion against their overlord, the Earl of Lancaster, things do not go to plan. Sir William is lucky to escape with his life after a battle at Preston and, as a wanted man, he has no choice but to become an outlaw. Meanwhile, the lands at Haigh are forfeit to the king, who gives them to Sir Peter Lymesey for a year and a day ... while Lady Mabel Bradshaigh must make a hard choice if she is to protect her children and herself.
