Fair Margaret

In the turbulent reign of King Henry VII, Peter Brome finds himself with a soldier''s blood on his hands -- blood the Spanish ambassador''s men demand be repaid. Poor and fatherless, Peter delivered the killing blow in self-defence -- and because of his helpless love for Margaret -- dark-eyed daughter of John Castell, the kindly and wealthy merchant who has overseen his upbringing. Now another pursues fair Margaret -- the powerful Marquis d''Aguilar of Spain, traveling in England upon a secret mission for the Inquisition. More than love hangs in the balance! (Goodreads)
