Pirate Queen
“The summons also includes Granuaile, to her surprise. She has been beseeching him for months to discuss the matter of her son’s captivity, but until now he has ignored her. It is a cruel and deliberate torture.
When she arrives in Galway Granuaile does not know what to expect. So many dreadful tales are being told of Bingham. And as soon as she sees him, she knows the stories are true. Richard Bingham has a long, cold, sharp-featured face, his dark beard tightly trimmed in the English fashi...on. He reminds Granuaile of a weasel. A weasel dressed in a velvet doublet and a high collar.
In the large chamber that serves as his audience room, he moves down the line of assembled chieftains while his secretary calls each person by name. Bingham speaks to a few, hardly glances at others. But when he reaches Granuaile, their eyes meet. Lock. Something passes between them.
Occasionally, when two strange hounds meet in the road, the hackles rise on their necks.MoreLess
