Set in the wilds of Northumbria, teeming London, and colonial Virginiawhere Jenny eventually settled on the estate of the famous William Byrd of WestoverJenny’s story reveals one young woman’s loyalty, passion, and courage as she struggles between living in the Old World and the New. This vividly powerful novel, like its predecessor The Winthrop Woman, combines thoroughly documented history with superb storytelling.
