The Woman Behind the Mirror

Because of an arranged marriage to a man who repulses her, Sarah Forsythe runs away with the man she loves, the son of a minister. Not to Gretna Green, to the New World. Instead of a country filled with hope and possibilities, Sarah finds broken promises, abandonment, poverty and shame. And her timing couldn’t be worse! After the infamous “tea party,” the siege of Boston worsens as the Americans rebel against Great Britain. Desperate, Sarah breaks open a safe—to find a bundle of documents instead of the cash she needs to survive. She guards the Bank of England documents, however, as she struggles to make the long, difficult journey from Boston back to England.

 

Bank investigator Neil McAlister doesn’t believe this woman who claims she “found” the documents and wants a reward in exchange for them—until he’s faced with two men using the same name and sharing nearly identical stories, each saying the documents belong to him. Who is lying? In time, Neil becomes aware that something is very wrong. As his feelings for her grow, he needs to know who wants the beautiful, defiant, and secretive Sarah dead?
