how the de Lacy inheritance ' passed from Robert who ■ built the castle - to Roger,

■ also revealed in the novel* Although this is Elizabeth’s


• first novel, she has previously written a number o f non­ fiction local interest titles - “Champion Lancastrians”, “Tales of Old Lancashire” and “Lancashire; Who Lies Beneath?”. ■ ■ * . • Basing her new novel on •


real events meant Elizabeth had to thoroughly research the topic. She said: “Altliougli this is a work of fiction it is based in fact. The main char­ acters were real people and the events are a mixture of fact and old legend. : “I came across the story when I.was researching for-

publish and sell it locally but Myrmidon Books snapped it up and now it will be avail­ able in bookshops all over the country. I’m thrilled and I hope that readers will be as • fascinated by the story as I am.”
