Elizabeth Chadwick re-release ~ The Running Vixen

Originally written in 1991, The Running Vixen is the follow up to The Wild Hunt.

UK Release Date: November 27, 2009

Synopsis: 1126. Heulwen, daughter of Welsh Marcher baron Guyon FitzMiles, has grown up with her father's ward, Adam de Lacey. There has always been a spark between them, but when Heulwen marries elsewhere, to Ralf le Chevalier, a devastated Adam absents himself on various diplomatic missions for King Henry I. When Ralf is killed in a skirmish, Heulwen's father considers a new marriage for her with his neighbour's son, Warrin de Mortimer. Adam, recently returned to England, has good reason to loathe Warrin and is determined not to lose Heulwen a second time. But Heulwen is torn between her duty to her father and the pull of her heart. Adam is no longer the awkward boy she remembers, but a man who stirs every fibre of her being - which places them both in great danger, because Warrin de Mortimer is not a man to be crossed and the future of a country is at stake ...

  5. I've got this one on my order list for November. I read The Wild Hunt when it was re-released with new cover and a makeover & enjoyed it.
    But then I'm a tad biased about Elizabeth Chadwick, love her work!!

  6. I never read this one. This is why I love re-issues. Some of the older covers are kind of silly too. This looks beautiful. thanks for the review.
