Publisher's Synopsis
Everyone knows the legend of Lady Godiva - the woman who (in)famously rode naked on horseback through Coventry to relieve her people from unfair taxation. But why would a lady of the court take it all off and risk everything, including husband, home and well-being? In this richly imagined retelling of an oft-told ancient tale, Nicole Galland presents Lady Godiva in all her glory, as she and her best friend, the Abbess Egdiva, and husband, Leofric the Earl of Mercia, embark on an adventure filled with courtly intrigue, deceit, back-stabbing and romance.
