The Impaler's Wife offers a fierce yet sensuous glimpse into the violent fifteenth century. Woven throughout is a peek into the life and times of one of the world's most enigmatic and maligned rulers. Eager to become Vlad's trusted confidant, Ilona soon discovers that marriage to a man tortured by his past comes with a price. This begins Ilona's journey into the treacherous world of court intrigues, family betrayals, and her husband's dark desires. The Impaler Prince, however, never takes no for an answer. It is love at first sight, but the king has other plans. Dracula is determined to marry into the family. Ilona Szilágy, the king's cousin, is young and ambitious. Vlad drapes his wolf-lined coat over my shoulders. What compelled me to trust a man with such a violent past I step back from the hungry-eyed prince, wrap my arms about myself, and shudder. King Matthias controls Hungary, his family, and the fate of the world's most notorious political prisoner, Prince Vlad Dracula.
