The marriage is unhappy, though the longed-for son and heir is eventually born...but when Robert is away on one of his military campaigns, Agnes flees back to her father's castle.
She is not safe; her young son William is not safe.
The Devil will seek to claim his own.

I have heard of Robert de Belleme, but only in the context of Robin of Sherwood, I didn't realise he was a real person. I will certainly be checking out your novel.
