The Book
Stormbird is the first in a new trilogy of historical fiction books (the second 'Trinity' was published in 2014) set in the 1400s and featuring Derry Brewer, master spymaster and the intrigue surrounding the Houses of York and Lancaster.
Will we all be drawn to this tale of intrigue and war? Or will be captivated by the strong female characterisation of Margaret of Anjou?
