Omschrijving
A sweeping historical adventure set during one of the most turbulent periods of British history - featuring a heroine you'll never forget...
This well-researched, atmospheric tale is as gripping as any of her thrillers.
A cleverly crafted combination of romance and adventure story.
'A wonderfully engaging heroine ... propulsive plot'
Both gripping and fascinating. The civil war in Dorset is evoked brilliantly, the characters are real and intriguing and the love story tender.
A sweeping historical romance with a very appealing central character ... a great story well told
This is historical fiction at its finest. [...] Jayne is a fantastic character, a woman very much in a man's world, living and working to bring succour to those in need.
I loved every moment of this brilliantly evocative saga of struggle, love and danger set against the horrors of civil war
A truly, utterly, gripping English Civil War love story that is as fleet and majestic as the birds of the title. This is Minette Walters at her brilliant best.
