Our summary description
As Independent Scottish booksellers, we write all of our descriptions personally, we hope you enjoy this one.
London, 1837. Twenty five year old Araminta McKenzie Moore is summoned from Richmond to her great aunt’s deathbed in Edinburgh, and meets her extended family for the first time. The McKenzie women, however, already know her well. They have been watching.
They carry a long, secret, dangerous history as Jewel Keepers to the Scottish Crown, and they need Araminta to play her part. A puzzle stretches back through generations, and her arrival is not coincidence but necessity.
The McKenzies are not alone in their search. They are being pursued, and the stakes are high. As Araminta is drawn further in, she begins to understand what it means to be the last of her line, and what success will demand of her. If she solves what they have set before her, she will uncover something more valuable than jewels, a secret with the power to change the lives of women on the cusp of Queen Victoria’s rule.
