Knight of the Cart

Sir Lancelot goes missing on his way to save Queen Guinevere—and Merlin must investigate the baffling disappearance in this Arthurian mystery.

King Arthur has just appointed a group of new knights to the Round Table—but Sir Meliagaunt is not among them. Embittered and feeling overlooked, Meliagaunt devises a mad plan to catch Arthur’s notice. He kidnaps Queen Guinevere, accuses her of adultery, and demands a trial by combat to prove his charge. Holding her prisoner at his fortified castle of Gorre, Meliagaunt hopes to force one of Arthur’s greatest knights to fight him. Sir Lancelot is the man for the task. But after hiding in a prison cart during his journey, he disappears…

Once again, Merlin is called upon not only for his magic abilities, but for his investigative skills. Together with the newly knighted Sir Gildas, he must find Lancelot and bring him back to Camelot in time to save the queen from the stake.
