As political infighting and military defeat plague Edward, Isabella deserts her husband and flees to France with her lover Roger Mortimer, a rebellious English baron, in the hope of raising an army. But it is a brave man that believes he can bed the so-called 'She-Wolf of France' and survive the curse of the accursed kings."--Back cover
