The King's Shadow

AKA The Serpent and the Dove Katherine Ashley's life is shattered when her betrothed is killed fighting for Cromwell at the Battle of Worcester. Her sole aim is revenge on the man who killed him-the daring Royalist captain Sir Justin Douglas, known as the King's Shadow. Her chance comes unexpectedly early, but when Katherine finds herself facing her sworn enemy, her hatred becomes strangely uncertain. She is suddenly caught up in a sinister web of intrigue. Mysteriously, Justin is always at the centre of the web, so how can Katherine escape? Will she ever discover for herself that revenge is sweet-especially to women?
