She, with Conan and her loyal followers, sets out to bring justice upon the evil brothers.

Reviews
The Red Keep
Reviewed by Sara Masarik
Fans of John Flanagan's Ranger's Apprentice series may love this novel! This story may be many pages. But it moves very quickly. There is some light and straightforward courtly romance. There is a lot of action. There are a number of battle scenes and duels. And there is intrigue. The good characters are noble and virtuous. The bad characters are evil. And one character has a surprising conversion at the end. There are bad priests and one really good one. Published in 1938, this one is a traditional high adventure novel for boys and girls.
The Red Keep
Excellent robber baron story, in the period following the Second Crusade in France...
