Bedrock research and a butterfly's delicate touch with characters--historical fiction that sucks you in and won't let go!"--DIANA GABALDON, #1 New York Timesbestselling author of Outlander From international bestselling author Susanna Kearsley comes a historical tale of intrigue and revolution in Scotland, where the exile of King James brought plots, machinations, suspicion and untold bravery to light. An investigation of a young widow's secrets by a man who's far from objective, leads to a multi-layered tale of adventure, endurance, romance...and the courage to hope. In the autumn of 1707, old enemies from the Highlands to the Borders are finding common ground as they join to protest the new Union with England. At the same time, the French are preparing to launch an invasion to bring the young exiled Jacobite king back to Scotland to reclaim his throne, and in Edinburgh the streets are filled with discontent and danger. Queen Anne's commissioners, seeking to calm the situation, have begun paying out money sent up from London to settle the losses and wages owed to those Scots who took part in the disastrous Darien expedition eight years earlier--an ill-fated venture that left Scotland all but bankrupt. When the young widow of a Darien sailor comes forward to collect her husband's wages, her claim is challenged. One of the men assigned to investigate has only days to decide if she's honest, or if his own feelings are blinding him to the truth. The Vanished Daysis a prequel and companion novel to The Winter Sea, with action that overlaps some of the action in that book. The Vanished Daysgoes back in time to the 1680s and introduces the reader to the Moray and Graeme families"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Widows $v Fiction. 600 00 $a Anne, $c Queen of Great Britain, $d 1665-1714 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Jacobites $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Kings and rulers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Large type books. 651 0 $a Scotland $x History $y 17th century $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Scotland $x History $y 18th century $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Edinburgh (Scotland) $v Fiction. 830 0 $a Thorndike large print romance series. 941 $a 4 945 $a lpt 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010024834.0 952 $l FDPC194 $d 20230824010240.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20220503070020.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220211010026.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=42739C188B0811EC8692ACEB22ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
