The picaresque story of a medieval pilgrimage told through the eyes of Gatty, chosen to accompany Lady Gwyneth on a journey to Jerusalem, when she has never previously been further than her own village. Gatty was a popular character in "The Seeing Stone" and "At The Crossing Place", and this is an ambitious and beautifully realised novel for older readers.
