When Rachel is brutally killed, and Emma must dry her tears and flee if she is to escape the same fate. Emma falls in with two other orphans, and Timothy and Lily become as dear to her as her own departed sister. But Fenton Gilmore does not give up so easily. Getting Emma back is central to his evil plans - and he will stop at nothing to make them happen. Can Emma escape the life her uncle has planned for her and find happiness at last? ********* Praise for Meg Hutchinson: 'The mistress of simmering sagas' - Peterborough Evening Telegraph 'Hutchinson knows how to spin a good yarn.
