Synopsis

Treachery. Theft. A Danish dilemma.

1606 – Theobald’s Palace, England

Unfortunately for Lucinda McCrae, kings can be careless with their jewels. When a drunk King James I swaps hats during a drinking contest with King Christian of Denmark, his priceless diamond hat brooch goes missing. Lucinda may have been the last one to see it. She may even have been sent to retrieve the precious brooch from the snoring, claret-filled Danish King…who thinks she stole it.

But she will not roll over and be branded a liar, harlot, and a thief.

With the help of the Sisters of the Sword, her clandestine band of female fencers, Lucinda must find the missing jewels in order to save her skin and her shaky reputation. If she fails she will face the fate of a thief or be forced to accept King Christian’s dubious “Viking solution” ― which would destroy her darling Robbie and spell the end for the Sisters of the Sword.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Terri Green is a Sydney based writer, though she is rarely at home. She loves a bit of history, mystery and romance, prefers laughter over misery and is a sucker for stories that tug at the heart. She shares her backyard with a lot of frogs and a colony of lyre birds, and her house with her husband and a dog called Mabel. When she isn’t writing you might find her sword-fighting, hula hooping or falling off a stand-up paddle board because life is too short to stay sitting down.
