Carlotta, the love child of Priscilla Eversleigh and Jocelyn Frinton, grows up in the shadow of war during the reign of Queen Anne. Carlotta's personal struggle begins when she's abducted by the charismatic Jacobite leader Lord Hessenfield. During her time as his hostage, they fall into a passionate affair. When she's released, the pregnant Carlotta marries to save her daughter Clarissa's legitimacy, but plunges into reckless affairs with other men—including the man beloved by her half-sister, Damaris.

Perihal pengarang
Philippa Carr (1906–1993) was one of the twentieth century's premier authors of historical fiction. She was born Eleanor Alice Burford, in London, England. Over the course of her career, she used eight pseudonyms, including Jean Plaidy and Victoria Holt—pen names that signaled a riveting combination of superlative suspense and the royal history of the Tudors and Plantagenets. Philippa Carr was Burford's last pseudonym, created in 1972. The Miracle at St. Bruno's, the first novel in Carr's acclaimed Daughters of England series, was followed by nineteen additional books. Burford died at sea on January 18, 1993. At the time of her death, there were over one hundred million copies of her books in print, and her popularity continues today.
