Plaidy Jean
This book is the eighth volume in the Plantagenet Saga, and the action

young men. His queen the beautiful Isabella was not to forgive or forget
her humiliation. The country was in turmoil. Robert the Bruce had
beaten the English at Bannockburn. The King was making deadly enemies
throughout the country, but did not realise that the most deadly of
these was the Queen. Alluring, powerful, and ruthless, she waited until
she took a lover Roger de Mortimer, and together they worked to
overthrow the man who had humiliated her. While Edward plunges along the
road on which his follies had set him, and which ends with the most
