A King's Favor Can Be A Dangerous Gift. Now a royal envoy, Gregory of Bordeaux rides with authority he never sought and delivers verdicts he doesn’t always believe in. From the courts and cities of England, a fiefdom in France, and a rebel stronghold in Ireland, his writs and seals carry weight, but his conscience grows heavier with each journey. Welcomed in some halls and endangered in others, Gregory must navigate a world teetering on the edge of insurgency—and somehow come out unscathed, or perhaps even ennobled. Equipped with a cunning mind, a dangerous quill, and an exceptional horse, Gregory weaves through a labyrinth of alliances. In order to survive, he’ll have to deceive his enemies and rally his friends. To outright win, he may have to betray the very king he serves. As civil war looms and loyalties shift with the tides, Gregory must answer the question he’s long avoided: is he merely a chronicler of history, or is he willing to shape it? The third and final installment in Richard Massey’s Bordeaux Chronicles, The Langley Credential is a galloping, razor-edged conclusion to a saga steeped in iron, ink, and ambition—where even a common wine merchant can rewrite the fate of a kingdom.
