"An angry warlock has doomed the people of Flanders to an eternal winter. The only way he will reverse the unending snow and cold is via the gift of a silver unicorn. The problem? No one has ever seen one. Do they even exist? You must decide: do you leave your village to battle the warlock on your own or do you go in search of a silver unicorn?"--Provided by publisher.
Marguerite, daughter of the Count of Flanders in 1347, grows up riding horses, fencing, and outwitting the boys, and although her father was disappointed to have a girl as his firstborn child, he waits and watches, seeing more in her than she knows.
