Synopsis:

In 1298 a 16 year old novice at Sempringham Priory, East Anglia known to everyone as 'Wencilian', is about to take Holy Orders. She has lived at the Priory nearly all her life and knows nothing of the world outside. During the war between England and Scotland, the priory admits a group of 'King's hostages' whose families are known to be Scottish sympathisers. Amongst these is Blanche, also 16. It is through Wencilian's subsequent illicit friendship with Blanche that she comes to understand the nature of her own passion for Aleric, the Lay Brother, and discovers the secret of her identity: she is Gwenllian, the only child of Prince Llywelyn ap Gruffydd and Elinor de Montfort. Finally, she must confront the fact that she too is a hostage to King Edward I - and a person of the highest political importance in England and Wales
