Description
Squire's Hazard: The Fifth Meonbridge Chronicle by Carolyn Hughes is set in 1363 and follows Dickon de Bohun as he navigates life as a squire in Steyning Castle. However, his position is threatened by Edwin de Courtenay, who bullies him and threatens to expose the truth about his birth. As Christmas approaches, Dickon returns home to Meonbridge, where he reconnects with childhood friend Libby Fletcher, now grown up. Their mutual attraction sparks a desire that could complicate Dickon's life. Meanwhile, Margery Tyler, Libby's aunt, harbours a deep-seated resentment towards the de Bohuns, fuelled by years of hidden anger and a desire for revenge. Dickon must confront his emotions and rise above the challenges posed by powerful enemies, all while navigating the complexities of love and loyalty.
