O knihe
How can a mother just stand by when her daughter is being cozened into sin?
It's 1360, eleven years since the Black Death devastated all of England, and six years since Emma Ward fled Meonbridge with her children, to find a more prosperous life in Winchester. Long satisfied that she'd made the right decision, Emma is now terrified that she was wrong. For she's convinced her daughter Bea is in grave danger, being exploited by her scheming and immoral mistress.
Bea herself is confused: fearful and ashamed of her sudden descent into sin, but also thrilled by her wealthy and attentive client.
When Emma resolves to rescue Bea from ruin and tricks her into returning to Meonbridge, Bea doesn't at first suspect her mother's motives. She is happy to renew her former friendships but, yearning for her rich lover, Bea soon absconds back to the city. Yet, only months later, plague is stalking Winchester again and, in terror, Bea flees once more to Meonbridge.
But, this time, she finds herself unwelcome, and fear, hostility and hatred threaten...
Terror, betrayal and deceit, but also love and courage, in a time of continuing change and challenge - Children's Fate, the fourth MEONBRIDGE CHRONICLE.
