In a country at war, a secret inheritance reveals a dark conspiracy …

On a sunlit afternoon in seventeenth-century Dorset, a young girl falls in love with a stranger.

But when her Puritan brother tries to force her into an unbearable marriage she flees, taking with her only the gift left to her by her unknown father, a gold pendant sealed by an engraving of an axe, and the words: St Matthew.

One of four intricately wrought seals – each holding a secret within – it can, when combined with the other three, bring great wealth and power. This power is her true inheritance – but it’s a perilous legacy others will kill for …

Do not expect Cornwell in this book, no epic battles, no excitement, just a rather dreary romance. I had thought there would be some civil war descriptions but a lascivious witch finder was included rather than Cornwell usual gripping narrative. If you like a romance you will enjoy this but I cannot recommend it as vintage Cornwell.

Not Cornwell

Any additional comments?

I bought this book because it was written by Bernard Cornwell and after listening to The Last Kingdom series. What a disappointment. This novel belongs in the Mills & Boon section.
I cannot believe it is by this fantastic author. I have also bought the sequel. Hope there is some improvement.
