New.
B Format.
Besieged by memories of her late lover and a family secret that won't lose its hold on her, Mia Morgan retreats from the painful present to find solace in the past.
As she struggles to complete her lover's last, unfinished book, his research leads her to Lady Brilliana Harley, a seventeenth-century Puritan and a lobe Roundhead in a country of Royalists. As her neighbours turn upon her, Lady Brilliana comes under a brutal and bloody siege and must captain a garrison of men and defend her home, whilst consumed by her longing of her absent husband.
As both women face their battles Mia, hollowed out with grief, finds that through Brilliana, separated from her by nearly four centuries, she can come to understand her own life, and perhaps even find a way forwards.
