About the Book

Fascinated by the medieval world? THE VISCOUNT'S DAUGHTER, by award-winning novelist and historian Phyllis Haislip takes you back to the twelfth century and an unforgettable heroine who defies her husband to take control of her life.

A kingdom in turmoil...

The ruthless, scheming Count of Toulouse...

A vulnerable heiress who becomes a runaway wife...THE VISCOUNT'S DAUGHTER won The Maryanne Farley Award for Fiction and was a finalist in the James River Writers' Best Unpublished Novel Contest. Grab a copy now.

In 1142, the medieval Kingdom of the Franks is in turmoil because King Louis VII cannot control his great nobles. One of the most powerful nobles is the Count of Toulouse.

Ermengarde, young heiress to the rich Viscounty of Narbonne, has no choice but to marry Toulouse.

How will she escape her possessive husband, find allies, and foil his efforts to recapture her? You'll find the answers in the book. Get a copy today.

This novel of bravery and betrayal, risk and redemption is based on the life of Ermengarde of Narbonne (1126?-1196), a remarkable, but little-known, contemporary of Eleanor of Aquitaine.

THE VISCOUNT'S DAUGHTER is suitable for older young adult readers and adults.

An excerpt from the book:

Ermengarde shivered, if the city defenses didn't hold, tonight would find her once more in Toulouse's hands, facing his anger. She raised her head and, from somewhere deep inside, strength coursed through her. I am Ermengarde, Viscountess of Narbonne, heiress to a proud tradition. My ancestors fought with Charlemagne and were immortalized in heroic chansons. I've escaped a hideous husband. I cannot fail my people or myself now. I am Ermengarde, Viscountess of Narbonne.

In a heartbeat, a cry went up from the defenders. "Look! There on the walls!" They roared in support, and Ermengarde sensed they renewed their efforts.

Toulouse's archers saw her, too. They took aim, probably awaiting the count's command before releasing their arrows. She stiffened, her pulse racing as she imagined her husband weighing the odds. Was she better off to him dead, or would her death ignite the whole region in war?
