Girl in a Cage by Jane Yolen, Robert Harris

Watch Braveheart...
Read this...

Picks up Scotland's tale from the point of view of the new young princess Marjorie Bruce, prisoner to King Edward of England. The chapters alternate between her current situation in a cage outside a priory in one of the border towns with chapters covering the previous months explaining how she got captured. I loved the pyschological game played between 12 year old Marjorie (who is as snarky as a 12 year old should be) and the conviving King who is trying to break her will.
