A Triple Knot: A Novel

The critically acclaimed author of The King's Mistress brings another fascinating woman from history to life in an enthralling story of political intrigue, personal tragedy, and illicit love.

Joan of Kent, renowned beauty and cousin to King Edward III, is destined for a politically strategic marriage. As the king begins a long dynastic struggle to claim the crown of France, plunging England into the Hundred Yearsâ€™ War, he negotiates her betrothal to a potential ally and heir of a powerful lordship.
Â
But Joan, haunted by nightmares of her fatherâ€™s execution at the hands of her treacherous royal kin, fears the kingâ€™s selection and is not resigned to her fate. She secretly pledges herself to one of the kingâ€™s own knights, one who has become a trusted friend and protector. Now she must defend her vow as the kingâ€”furious at Joanâ€™s defianceâ€”prepares to marry her off to another man.
Â
In A Triple Knot, Emma Campion brings Joan, the â€œFair Maid of Kentâ€ to glorious life, deftly weaving details of King Edward IIIâ€™s extravagant court into a rich and emotionally resonant tale of intrigue, love, and betrayal.
