The perilous gard by Elizabeth Marie Pope. It is loosely based on the Tam Linn legend and set in the waning days of Queen Mary’s reign in England and the start of Elizabeth I ‘s reign
The characters are well done The heroine is one of my all time best loved. While she fits the current model of the spunky empowered young girl who does not wait for Prince Charming but saves herself (and others) there is a core of strength and quiet power that the author developed in her young character that is transcendent of time and historical period and a book written a long time ago
I very much enjoyed the writers command of prose and her take on an old legend
It is only available in print and not in most book stores It is available at Amazon
I have gone through several copies. They disappear with younger female relatives
I only wish that Elizabeth Marie Poe had written more than two books
Thank you
