April 1284 - Recently widowed and now lady-in-waiting to Queen Eleanor of England who is about to give birth to her sixteenth child, Catrin never dreamed of ever returning to Wales. She had even less imagined finding herself confronted with a murder, or coming face to face with Rhys, a childhood friend lost sight of twenty years earlier. Rhys had never thought of ever returning to his homeland either. But a whole life dedicated to war had brought him back exactly to his starting point, penniless, in the service of Catrin's older brother. confidence, Catrin and Rhys join forces to fight the intrigues and attempts at betrayal which multiply within a castle of Caernarfon far from being completed. And when the murderer strikes again, this time within the Court, both must race against time before the king, or the child to be born, is his next victim.Crouchback is the first volume from the series The Investigations of Rhys the Welsh.Crouchback is a medieval term derived from the words cross-back (literally cross and back) and designates those who carried the cross on their back, the Crusaders
