Description
The Chatelaine by Kate Heartfield is set in 1328 Bruges, where a siege by the forces of Hell has brought plague and grief to the city. Margriet de Vos, a widow with a dark past, learns that her husband's return from war is a ruse, and she must take action to reclaim her inheritance.
With the help of an unlikely group, including a transgender man-at-arms, a traumatized widow wielding a giant water-powered forgehammer, and a wealthy alderman's wife, Margriet sets out on a perilous journey into Hell itself. Her daughter, haunted by a dead husband, joins her, bringing with it an enchanted distaff that allows her to control the revenants and see the future.
Together, they form a raiding party like no other, driven by their desire for revenge and redemption in a world where the boundaries between life and death are blurred. Will Margriet and her companions succeed in reclaiming what's rightfully hers, or will they succumb to the horrors that await them in Hell?
