Thompson, Ricki

YA
In 1536 Dell flees her abusive father, landing up in London. She's befriended by a novice monk and by a woodworker whose allegiance to the pope is now treasonous; Dell's life is soon in peril too. Thompson's romance offers a quick glimpse of sixteenth-century England. Her characters and themes--court life, religious and political strife, puppet theater, etc.--are intriguing.
