Description

The Champion by Elizabeth Chadwick tells the story of two half-brothers, Alexander and Hervi de Montroi, who find themselves drawn into each other's lives in unexpected ways. In 13th-century France, Hervi, a skilled jouster, takes Alexander under his wing, introducing him to a world of travel and adventure.

As they navigate the complexities of their relationship, both men become embroiled in the intricate web of court politics and personal relationships that define their time. Monday, a young woman who has known hardship and loss, finds herself at the centre of a maelstrom of desire and loyalty, as she becomes entangled with two powerful men: Alexander's child is born out of wedlock, and Monday becomes the King's mistress in England.

As their paths continue to cross, both men must confront the consequences of their choices and the power of love to shape our lives. With its rich historical setting and compelling characters, The Champion is a gripping tale of loyalty, duty, and the human heart.
