Sequel to Raider's Tide. The continuation of Beatrice and Robert's
story, historical drama set in 16th Century border country. In
Raider's Tide, Beatrice, a sixteen-year-old English girl, saves
Robert - a - Scot from death. She has risked her own life, by
helping the enemy but in turn is rescued by John, the local pastor.
After nearly drowning, and with Robert gone, Beatrice finds it
difficult to settle back into everyday life. She starts to learn
healing with the Cockleshell Man but is too distraught to
concentrate well. A quarrel with her father results in her leaving
home to stay at the Parsonage out father's way. There, her
relationship with John deepens and they become betrothed. Meanwhile
several captured Scots are imprisoned in the infamous dungeons of
Lancaster Castle. Robert is among them - he did not make it across
the border. The prisoners are almost certain to be hanged after
their trials at the Lent Assizes. Beatrice makes repeated attempts
to free him, but nothing works and Robert is condemned to die. In
desperation Beatrice plots with some travelling players to rescue
Robert and in doing so, she jeopardises her relationship with John
and narrowly escapes being thrown into jail herself. In saving
Robert, Beatrice has become a fugitive from the law herself... and
Scotland is the only place she can go.
