Lavender's Wolf

Young Wolfram dreams of becoming a knight, yet the path to knighthood is an arduous one.

Sworn to serve as a squire in the household of an ageing baron, Wolfram soon realises that greater challenges than martial training and courtly manners await him. His lord's castle is crumbling, his knights feeble, and outlaws and extortionists prey on the estate unchecked. A growing infatuation with the baron's daughter, the enchanting Lady Ingrid, binds Wolfram's heart to the fate of the manor, yet a dark secret lurks within the castle that threatens to turn Wolfram's dream into a nightmare.

How high is the price of knighthood, and how much must Wolfram sacrifice in the name of fealty?
