The Bluebell

By Gloria Dent

In the first book, The Eagle and Child, of this trilogy of the adventures of Cissy Wanton, we are introduced to an, innocent and very naive young woman. With the background of the Wars of the Roses, Cissy is forced to grow up quickly. Although caring neither for the Yorkists or the Lancastrians, she found herself included in Queen Margaret's retinue.In this second novel, The Bluebell, we find Cissy again seeking adventure, spurred on by a desire to achieve the ways of a lady under the tutelage of Queen Margaret. Cissy, now a beautiful young woman, undertakes the life of a spy for the deposed Queen, and travels to France. When she meets up with her fickle fiancee, Sir Richard Lovelace, she discovers she is now a woman of means, and escapes with the jewels that Dick purchased with the dowry from Cissy's father. Her adventures continue, complete with encounters with devious but handsome lovers, amorous clergy, and shipwrecks. Cissy's own sense of humour sustains her during her voyages.
