Tidelands

內容簡介

內容簡介 英國宮廷歷史小說名家力作。1648年仲夏夜前夕，英國陷入內戰。為貧窮與迷信所困的阿莉娜在滿月下的墓地等待讓她擺脫暴力丈夫的幽靈，卻遇到逃亡的詹姆士。 Midsummer’s Eve, 1648, and England is in the grip of civil war between renegade King and rebellious Parliament. The struggle reaches every corner of the kingdom, even to the remote Tidelands – the marshy landscape of the south coast. Alinor, a descendant of wise women, crushed by poverty and superstition, waits in the graveyard under the full moon for a ghost who will declare her free from her abusive husband. Instead she meets James, a young man on the run, and shows him the secret ways across the treacherous marsh, not knowing that she is leading disaster into the heart of her life.
