Young Eleanor, niece of King Edward II, is delighted with her marriage to Hugh le Despenser and her appointment as a lady-in-waiting to Queen Isabella's household. But before long, Eleanor realizes that her beloved Uncle Edward is not the mighty ruler his kingdom-or his queen-expected. Hugh's unbridled ambition and his intimate relationship with Edward arouse widespread resentment, even as Eleanor remains fiercely loyal to her husband and to her king. However, her allegiance may cost her dearly. From the battlefield to the bedchamber and through hope and despair, treachery and fidelity, "The Traitor's Wife" is a tale of an extraordinary woman living in an extraordinary time.

For anyone interested in this period, and would like a more balance view of Edward II, personal life and loves. This is your book! He's made human, not the perverted weakling as historians have painted him.
Ms. Higgenbotham, is a wonderful story teller who has, taken up the case for Edward as the Ricardians have for Richard III.
