“‘Persons of our rank,’ declared the Dowager, quivering with outrage at the mere thought, ‘do not fall in love!’ But her niece Beatrice and her grand-daughter Eleanor don’t agree and dream of love matches.
Beatrice is despatched to London by the Dowager to look over the current crop of eligible bachelors, but is not impressed by them—though the languid charm of Justin Serle disturbs her more than she will admit. She is appalled by the lack of social conscience and the mercenary attitude toward marriage displayed by the ton. Her country innocence, generous heart and impulsive behaviour, however, lead her into some alarming and even dangerous situations. Meanwhile, back at Setherby, the beautiful and headstrong Eleanor is up to mischief of her own. And when Beatrice returns, the Dowager, still bent on marrying off the two young women, puts another plan into operation and arranges a house party. Will Eleanor’s secret be discovered? Will Beatrice continue to deny her own heart? And will the villain achieve his wicked ambitions? Only after a desperate struggle in the potting shed at midnight will matters be resolved and love triumph.” |

| “Set in England in the 15th century, Treason tells the story of the reigns of the two Yorkist Kings Edward IV and Richard III. Martin Robsart is orphaned in the civil strife between the Duke of York and the (Lancastrian) supporters of King Henry VI and his wife Margaret of Anjou. Martin’s distant cousin the Duchess of York takes him under her wing, and he grows up serving the new young King Edward IV and his brother Richard, Duke of Gloucester.
Edward IV is facing a rebellion by his brother George, Duke of Clarence, and their cousin Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick (“the kingmaker”). In a failed coup the rebels have recently taken King Edward prisoner, and his brother Richard has become his chief lieutenant and military leader. Martin and Richard have recently discovered they loved the same girl, Innogen Shaksper, and the baby she is about to bear could have been fathered by either of them. Martin has realized he truly loves Innogen, and Richard is half in love with Warwick’s daughter Anne.” |
