Journey to Enchantment (Golden Chronicles)
In this second volume of the Golden Chronicle series (begun with Practice to Deceive, the setting is again 18th century Scotland and England. Ligun Doone is a mysterious folk hero who somehow eludes and frustrates the redcoats, the enemy Sassenach. Prudence MacTavish, a lass from the shores of Loch Ness, is passionately patriotic. Fate, in the person of a wounded officer, brings Ligun Doone not only into Prudence's home but into her heart as well, though Ligun Doone's real identity turns out to be an ironic surprise. The two engage in dangerous escapades for the safe conduct of a cipher who will help the cause of those called by Bonnie Prince Charlie. The large cast of characters, the vigorous intrigue and robust dialect are up to Veryan's professional standard.Copyright 1986 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
