Shakespeare's Witch: Love, War and Magic J.d. Steffensen 1. izdevums

In a world of glory and treason, three strangers come together. One is born to lead his country, one to battle for England's soul, and one to preserve its magic. The story of love, war and a touch of magic! Shakespeare's Witch is a story of three unlikely friends who risk their lives, fortunes and honor for each other and for England. Beatrice, accused of witchcraft, must choose between Henry, the dashing, wealthy Earl of Southampton, or William Shakespeare, the passionate poet and a leader of the Catholic resistance. Can Beatrice protect Shakespeare if she gives her heart to the Earl? Can either man resist Beatrice's alluring, dark beauty? Can the three bring peace to Elizabeth's kingdom? This story is based on historical research that reveals the complexity of three relationships and the religious and political conflict that was Queen Elizabeth's England.
