THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'Quietly brilliant ... among the best
fiction of our time.' Daily Telegraph 'The finest novel Dunmore has
written.' Observer 'Superb and poignant.' Guardian It is 1792 and
Europe is seized by political turmoil and violence. Lizzie Fawkes
has grown up in Radical circles where each step of the French
Revolution is followed with eager idealism. But she has recently
married John Diner Tredevant, a property developer who is heavily
invested in Bristol's housing boom, and he has everything to lose
from social upheaval and the prospect of war. Diner believes that
Lizzie's independent, questioning spirit must be coerced and
subdued. She belongs to him: law and custom confirm it, and she
must live as he wants. But as Diner's passion for Lizzie darkens,
she soon finds herself dangerously alone. ______________ Nominated
for the 2018 Independent Booksellers Week Award Longlisted for the
2018 Walter Scott Prize for Historical Fiction
