The Moorish Whore by Rebekah Scott

Plucked as a prize of war from the palace of the poet-king of Sevilla, princess Zaida lost her name, her religion and her family in a single day. Isolated in San Facund, the monastic heart of the Castilian kings vast realm, Isabels Psalter and folio of Islamic poems kept her spirit alive in a town that considered her a Moorish whore. Betrayal and a clever escape led her to a new life, and a chance to write her colorful tale. The Moorish Whore is based on the true story of an 11th century princess.
Rebekah Scott was a reporter on American newspapers and magazines for many years before moving in 2006 to tiny pueblo on the plains of Spain. She now tends to animals, a vegetable garden, and wandering souls on the ancient Camino de Santiago pilgrimage trail.
