«The Scarlet Seed» is the historical novel by Edith Pargeter, published by Macdonald in paperback (288 pages, in English).
Young Harry Talvace remains a prisoner in Parfois Castle, in the disputed lands of the Welsh border. His gaoler, Ralf Isambard, was once his father's protector and later his ruin. Captive and captor hate each other, though a grudging affection binds them. The threat of civil war in England will force Harry to mature and face a violent outcome in the shadow of the great church for which the first Harry sacrificed his life.
Third instalment of the Heaven Tree trilogy. The work was originally published in 1963; this edition is from 1987.
