[Abbess of Meaux 10] • Ten Weeks That Changed England Forever · Prequel

This is a prequel to the Hildegard of Meaux medieval suspense series. I intend it as a gift to her many fans who ask, why on earth did she become a nun? Here she is, still only twenty-two, a widow with two small children, when she claims her rights over lands in the Welsh Marches. Meet her in the turbulent London of 1376 when John of Gaunt and the barons try to silence the voice of the common people and push England to the brink of civil war. Soon the streets are running with blood in the so-called Peasants' Revolt and Hildegard is drawn in as witness to the brutal beginnings of the long and savage battle for power when a king will die for the Crown.
