The Lady and the Unicorn

From the bestselling author of Girl with a Pearl Earring comes a historical tale of love, sex and revenge. Keen to demonstrate his favour with the King, nobleman Jean Le Viste commissions six tapestries to adorn his chateau walls. He expects soldiers and battlefields. But artist Nicolas des Innocents instead designs a seductive world of women, unicorns and flowers, using Le Viste's wife Genevieve and ripe daughter Claude as muses. As his designs spring to life, Nicolas is inspired once more - by the master weaver's daughter Alienor and her mother Christine -
