Angeline can hardly bear the blistering heat, the noise, the sea of faces crowding in upon her in the teeming Egyptian market. Only a short time ago she left her small village in France to follow Stephen, a shepherd boy mounting a children's Crusade to the Holy Land. She cannot believe she is now being sold as a slave to one of the great princes of Egypt. Angeline vividly recreates medieval Cairo, a rich and cultured city where Muslims, Christians and Jews live peacefully side by side. Karleen Bradford's return to the Crusades is a moving, colourful tale with a spirited heroine at its heart.
