Thirteen-year-old noblewoman Elinor flees an arranged marriage by disguising herself as a male troubadour. But in thirteenth-century France being a wandering poet can also mean being a spy, and Elinor must rely on new friends in order to survive. Hoffman provides readers with painstaking historical details, political intrigues, and engaging characters.
