  Scottish Wars of Independence, 1297. Scottish resistance has been crushed, and King Edward, Hammer of the Scots, now rules the North. Doesn't he?
  
  At Chester Castle, young apprentice armourer Harry has no idea just how much his life is going to change from the moment he is told to guard an imprisoned Scottish nobleman: the rebel Andrew de Moray. The boy's momentary carelessness gives the prisoner all he needs: an opportunity to escape. Harry finds himself kidnapped, and on his way to Scotland.
  
  Soon, he is caught up in the Northern Rising with its skirmishes and stealth attacks. But these are nothing to the storm of questions in Harry's mind: Whose cause is right? Why has his new master joined forces with the outlaw William Wallace? Can his new friend Euphemia be trusted?
  
  As arrows fly and swords clash at the battle of Stirling Bridge, Harry must choose: Whose side is he on?

  The Woman Who Lived In A Shoe -...

  Yes, her house did look like a shoe and she did have a LOT of children (actually they were all her grandchildren so don't judge her) and she often did not know what to do. But she was a prudent and loving lady who took all 16 of them in and they somehow managed to not just grow, but thrive and grow healthier on the little food she could afford. That and of course the spanking they all got to help them grow.  Perhaps it was the love that she gave them all with great abundance. She may be short on food and their beds may be cramped and their clothes patched and old, but there was never a lack of love for any of them in her 'shoe' home. 
  This story finally gives us the 'true' facts of how this all came about, both how she had so many children to care for and how her house gradually came to resemble a gigantic shoe. You know you want to know how this happened, don't you? I certainly did and am much happier now that it is all explained fully and neatly. Give it a listen!
