Description
New York Times bestselling author Susanna Kearsley (over 1.1M copies sold) explores when a man's duty conflicts with his sense of justice and honor, and how love can overcome enmity in the light of truth.
What happens when an ordinary man is in service to a dangerous king, and undertakes the one mission that brings him to love and his true calling. In 1613, King James sends his messenger Andrew Logan to Scotland to arrest his late son's close advisor Sir David Moray. Accompanied by his aloof neighbor Phoebe Westaway, Andrew slowly untangles the real point of his mission—to frame Sir David for Prince Henry's death. But Andrew is unwilling to bring an innocent man into a treacherous betrayal.
Andrew's feisty and lovely neighbor Phoebe Westaway has always been stand-offish to Andrew, having heard malicious gossip against him. But as they journey to Scotland and back, Phoebe has the opportunity to see Andrew for the honorable and loyal man that he is, and her change of heart may open new possibilities for them once their mission is complete.
Advance Praise
"[A] noteworthy historical...Kearsley’s deep character work includes flashbacks depicting Moray’s close relationship with Henry and an unexpected but convincing bond between Logan and Phoebe. Fans of C.J. Sansom’s Matthew Shardlake series will appreciate this." — Publishers Weekly
"Kearsley's latest has everything her readers have come to expect (and love) from her—a well-researched setting (here, 1613 Scotland and England), a hero whose still waters run deep, romance, and a hint of the supernatural. Seamlessly integrating historical details, this slow-burn road-trip novel is a real gem." —Booklist
