Synopsis

Painted faces and dignified wigs hide deadly secrets. Can a woman fighting for hope overcome a tangled web of politics and insurrection?
Wonderful historical fiction! Great accuracy and detailed research, with a full-blooded, gripping story running (and sometimes leaping) from page to page. Excellent read—and even better, the beginning of a series! - Diana Gabaldon

England, 1742. Beth Cunningham loves her simple existence. But left penniless with only a dowry held in trust after her father’s death, she fears her peaceful rural lifestyle is about to be snatched from her hands. And when her ruthless brother comes home from war intent on using her inheritance to advance his own career, she’s terrified her much-valued freedom is about to be married off forever.

Defying his ugly orders that she enter society, Beth soon gives in to her sibling’s demands when he turns violent. But with rebellion boiling over across the country, her Catholic heritage may be deadlier than her brother’s fearsome ambition.

Can she escape her family’s conspiratorial control and survive the coming revolution?

Mask of Duplicity is the enthralling first tale in The Jacobite Chronicles historical fiction series. If you like strong-minded heroines, rich details of the past, and political mayhem, then you’ll love Julia Brannan’s mesmerizing story.

À propos de l'auteur

Julia has been a voracious reader since childhood, using books to escape the miseries of a turbulent adolescence. After leaving university with a degree in English Language and Literature, she spent her twenties trying to be a sensible and responsible person, even going so far as to work for the Civil Service. The book escape came in very useful there too. And then she gave up trying to conform and resolved to spend the rest of her life living as she wanted to, not as others would like her to. She has since had a variety of jobs, including telesales, teaching and gilding and is currently a transcriber, copy editor and proofreader. In her spare time she is still a voracious reader, and enjoys keeping fit and travelling the world. Life hasn’t always been good, but it has rarely been boring. She lives in rural Wales with her cat Constantine, and her wonderful partner sensibly lives four miles away in the next village. Now she has decided that rather than just escape into other people’s books, she would actually quite like to create some of her own, in the hopes that people will enjoy reading them as much as she does writing them.
