Hester loves him fiercely, but the Earl of Lamorna has a wild past. Rumours of a child with his black hair and grey eyes wound Hester more than she’ll admit.
Crow’s enemies also want him tried for treason, and soon Hester and their own daughter are in danger. There’s nothing Hester won’t do to protect their child. So when Countess Lieven drops her guard and says, ‘Take your baby, Hester, and run,’ Hester does exactly that.
