White Rose of Night

On a vast canvas Keegan returns to the past with a massive tale of the Crusades, the Lionheart - barbarism, splendor, and coming of age. The Saxon is oppressed in his own land; Palestine is torn by a war where there are no real victors. For men like Paul Delgado and Edward of Aethelstan, no place is safe. They are men who love men, in an age when their love is forbidden. Crusade takes them to alien realms; before he returns, Paul will be a man grown, with an epic tale of death, sorcery and sublime sensuality. Dusty battlefields and the bedchambers of Saracen captains are his memories. Silk and steel, delight, despair, and the magic of forgotten ages. Darkly sensual, vast in scope, here is a haunting romance with a twist of fantasy, from the acclaimed author of the award-winning historical, THE DECEIVERS. "Mel Keegan's name is a byword for thrilling gay adventure in the past, present and future - MILLIVRES on Aquamarine."
