Description

In 1530, a young woodcarver named Cuthbert Watts is sent to assist in building a new hall in Lancashire. His presence sparks resentment from the Master builder, Abel, and his apprentice, Will, who are hiding secrets that threaten their lives. As Cuthbert perseveres despite obstacles, he befriends the son of the hall's owner, further antagonizing Abel. The story combines the practical challenges of building a Tudor Hall with the complex web of relationships and rivalries among its workers. Can Cuthbert overcome the difficulties ahead and win the heart of the girl he loves? Set against the backdrop of 16th-century Lancashire, this novel explores the tensions and secrets that simmer beneath the surface of everyday life in a small community.
