Publisher's Synopsis
Simla, India, 1914. Married at eighteen to the dashing Jack, beautiful Elizabeth Ravenhart is devastated when their dazzling party of a marriage is cut tragically short. Without a penny to her name, Bess is persuaded by Jack's mother, the indomitable Cora Ravenhart, to return to England, leaving her infant son Frazer in his grandparents' care until Bess can afford to send for him. But Cora has no intention of parting with the boy... Twenty years later, a knock on Bess's Edinburgh front door sets in motion a chain of events that no one could have foreseen. For Frazer has come to claim his family - and his birthright, the majestic, brooding Ravenhart House. None of their lives will ever be the same again...
