Product Description
Book Description
Although born into the British aristocracy, the Honourable Sophia Lucienne Rochford was raised in obscurity first in a French convent and then a Parisian brothel. At sixteen, she is restored to her rightful place as the daughter of the Rochford family, but a devastating betrayal by her father fires her determination to seek wealth and independence at any cost. Ignoring the existence of love, Lucy succeeds in her aim, but makes many tragic mistakes before she comes to terms with her true self. Earthy, cruel and beautifully told, this is the gripping sequel to The Chatelaine. AUTHBIO: Claire Lorrimer began writing at the age of ten, encouraged by her mother who was also an author. Her post on the editorial team of a woman's magazine gave her a unique insight into the world of publishing, but it was during the Second World War that her writing career became established. She produced romantic short stories and serials for Woman's Illustrated and later penned some sixty light romantic novels. Although her first love was children's books, she could not find a publisher for her work and turned to historical fiction. These historical novels are characterised by meticulous detail and feeling for the period, often highlighting the situation of women. Claire Lorrimer lives in rural Kent, and still writes stories and plays for her friends and grandchildren.
