A Knight of the White Cross

Warwick's trumpet sounded below the chateau while Queen Margaret waited to meet the man who had broken Lancaster's power. Fifteen years of hatred must become alliance before that rider crosses my threshold, however impossible it feels. You step into this one-chapter preview with Lady Eleanor Tresham at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. The gatekeeper lifted the bar, and England waited beyond a sea full of unasked questions. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
