The King's Bed

This is the story of an inn-keeper's daughter and the natural son of a king. Because her family had served King Richard, and because the king spoke kindly to her when he stopped at her family's inn on the way to Bosworth Field, Tansy was devoted to the Yorkist cause. After the army left, another visitor arrived -- a young man of no apparent importance, wo called himself Dickon. Dickon's face showed his relationship with the King, and after Richard had been killed and the Yorkist army defeated, Tansy risked her good name to shelter him from Henry Tudor's victorious army.
