Publisher's Synopsis
Autumn, 1139, Normandy
On a beach in Normandy stands Matilda, once Empress, Queen and Countess, named heir to England and Normandy, daughter of Henry I. Her throne stolen from her by the hands of her cousin Stephen of Blois, Matilda has waited to gather her supporters, waited to sail to England that she might wage war to claim the throne she was promised by her father. With loyal men and women at her side, the Empress will begin her campaign for the throne of England and Normandy, to reclaim her birthright from the man who stole it from her. The period known to history as the Anarchy is about to begin, and chaos to unfold upon England, Normandy and the people of those kingdoms as one cousin struggles against another for the crown, and the right to decide their own destiny... Shipwreck is the third book in the series The Heirs of Anarchy, by G. Lawrence. The author's thanks are due to Julia Gibbs, proof reader of this work, and Consuelo Parra, the cover artist.
