Summary

Shortlisted for the Historical Novel Society's 2015 Indie Prize.

It is 1763. James Blakiston wants to solve the mystery of old Reuben Cooper’s murder. He wants to forget the loss of fortune and position. Most of all, he wants to ignore his yearning for the beautiful and spirited Kate Greener. That's not too much to ask. Is it?

Critic reviews

"This novel is on a par with Thomas Hardy's meaty offerings of country life and the hardships of the less well off: those beholden to the super-rich of their day." (Francine Howarth, Romance Reviews Magazine)
