He has also come on a mission.Cortez was the last man who saw Diamanthas husband alive and promised the dying man he would take care of his wife. He has therefore come to claim her. Horrified Diamantha struggles to come to terms with what de Bretagne is telling her but in her heart resentment and hatred stir: Robert Edlingtons corpse was left upon the fields of Falkirk and de Bretagne as the last man to see him is to blame. Therefore before Diamantha will become de Bretagnes wife she makes a demand of him: return for Roberts body and bring him home for a proper burial. And so the great Questing to find Robert Edlingtons body begins. Join Diamantha and Cortez on their great journey from the fields of Dorset to the hallowed grounds of Falkirk a journey during which they discover great and terrible things about the world their country and each other. From the ashes of grief rises a phoenix of great passion and bonds are forged between Diamantha and Cortez that can never be broken.
