Chapter One

Lady Kathryn, better known as Katy, lived a simple life in Ireland. That is until her father was accused of treason, and she left home to plead for his life. Katy soon finds herself in the midsts of a looming civil war, away from the safety of her family, and a pawn to the ruling power. Katy is forced to navigate a world where family turn on one another as the Houses of York and Lancaster fight for the throne.

Author's note: While many of the characters are real people, creative liberties have been taken including respective ages of characters and historical accuracy of events. Katy is my own original character and is based on no particular woman of the time.
