NEW from H.G. Watts

From H.G. Watts — How did a rich, powerful, Roman noblewoman end up sharing the crypt of St. Francis of Assisi? Why was she the only woman at his deathbed? What was the special relationship between Jacoba of the Seven Suns and the reformed playboy who considered females honeyed poison? Documents related to Jacoba disappeared shortly after Francis died. However, it is fact Jacoba was a Roman aristocrat who in her early teens joined Rome’s most powerful family after wedding a man nearly twice her age. When he dies prematurely, the young widow takes charge of his palaces and knights as well as raises their children. She also maintains a lifelong relationship with St. Francis. How and why did their close relationship develop?

This intriguing medieval novel entertains and enlightens, deftly infusing fact into a page-turning story of love, loss and transformation set in Italy’s Middle Ages. “BLOOD OF THE SEVEN SUNS” is for people who love history but prefer novels to textbooks. This book is part history, part mystery, and entirely captivating.
