Set in Georgian England, fifteen-year-old Sophia is trapped by the limitations of living in a man's world.

Media Reviews
'Terrifically exciting stuff, somewhat in the vein of Celia Rees's splendid novel Sovay, but with a dash of Georgette Heyer added to the mix' * Amanda Craig, Times *
'With feisty heroines and rich period details, Jensen is one of the best historical writers around.' * The Bookseller *
