Description

The charismatic Bishop Odo of Bayeux, brother to William the Conqueror of Normandy, commissions a tapestry to record the conquest of England. Gytha, previously the handmaiden to the mistress of Odo’s enemy, is hired as an embroiderer. As Odo’s life becomes entangled with Gytha’s, he comes into conflict with his king and his God. Friends become enemies and enemies become lovers. Nothing in life or in the tapestry is what it seems. This is an unlikely love story born of passion and intensity, and their tale is “a story of love, war, and the tangled truth of Britain’s birth.


“This powerful piece of fiction ranks with some of the finest of the genre.” 4 1/2 Stars, Top Pick of the Month. —RT Book Reviews praise for Sins of the House of Borgia
