Publisher's Synopsis
June 1837. She should have remained in the care of her sour aunt in Chalke Bissett, but eager to be reunited with her beloved father, Liberty Lane heads for Dover. But there an anonymous note awaits, informing her of his death by duel, and commanding her to stay put. Liberty is certain of one thing: her father may have led an unconventional life, but he would never have taken part in a duel. With no resources bar her own wits, she sets sail for the Continent in pursuit of the truth.
