Queen of Swords by Sara Donati

A search for a stolen child on the eve of battle

Good condition – corner wear and light creasing to the cover.

The fifth novel in Sara Donati's sweeping Wilderness series finds Hannah Bonner and her half-brother Luke reunited with Luke's wife Jennet after a long search through the Caribbean, only to learn she was forced to give up their newborn son to keep him safe. The trail leads them to New Orleans in the summer of 1814, straight into the path of the powerful, unscrupulous Poiterin family and the looming War of 1812 battle that will decide the city's fate. Rich with historical detail and drawing on a large, vividly drawn cast, this instalment moves the series' beloved characters far from their usual frontier setting into the tension-filled streets of Creole New Orleans, blending romance, history and family loyalty in equal measure.
