The exciting story of a rebellious Puritan woman on a perilous quest for love and fortune, <i>A Crowning Mercy </i>is a must for Cornwell fans as well as for devoted readers of Sharon Kay Penman and Diana Gabaldon.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>The civil war that is tearing England asunder in the year 1643 has not yet touched Dorcas Slythe, a secretly rebellious young Puritan woman living in the countryside south of London. She aches to escape the safe, pious tyranny of her father--and the opportunity appears with the arrival of Toby Lazender, dashing scion of a powerful royalist family, who awakens her to her passionate destiny. Her adventure truly begins with the discovery of an intricately wrought gold seal--one of four that, when joined, will reveal a great secret. Suddenly grave danger lies before her--not from Cromwell's advancing armies, but from relentless enemies who covet the great treasure to which she now holds the key.</p>
