"It is Christmas of 1183, and Henry II of England and Eleanor of Aquitaine are, for once, together in the drafty castle of Chinon. For all their regal status, they are much like any long-estranged but inseparably married couple: Henry flaunts his new mistress; Eleanor plots against him with their sons. They will do anythig they can to hurt each other. And they love each other to distraction"--Cover.
