Description

Determined to avoid an arranged marriage, adventurous Lady Anna Spencer decides to run off to join her sister in America. To this end, she enlists the help of the handsome Scottish head groom on her father's estate, but this escapade may prove more challenging than her ladyship expected.

The groom, known simply as Lex, is a fugitive from the army, having deserted in order to bring Lady Anna's severely wounded brother safely home from France. With the redcoats hot on his trail, he agrees to accompany Lady Anna, only to learn she's also on a quest for sunken treasure from the court of Louis XVI.

Arriving in Riverhaven, New Brunswick, they suddenly find themselves in the midst of a collection of rogues even more notorious than themselves. Will these outlaws be of any help against the problems that have followed Lex and Lady Anna from England?

About the author

Gail MacMillan has always wanted to be a writer. She was 30 years old when her first book, Forest of Fear, was published for Avalon in 1974. Since then she has gone on to write three novels for Avalon, a variety of articles and stories for magazines in Canada and the United States, and two books on her favorite dog, the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. For a 1992 article on this breed, Gail was awarded a Maxwell Medal in New York by the Dog Writers' Association of America for the best article in a canine magazine or newspaper.

Gail's other interests include reading, horses, and canoeing. She currently lives in Bathurst, New Brunswick with her husband, Ron, and two dogs, a Sheltie mix and, of course, a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.
