(Continued from front flap)

leigh, Zipporah was a different woman. Caught in a widening web of menace and manipulation, she was forced to rise to the challenge of those working against her. And something more had changed for Zipporah: she had fallen in love with a handsome stranger she might never see again, but whose presence would dominate her future and her fortunes more powerfully than she could ever have imagined.

With The Adulteress, Philippa Carr has created her strongest, most human heroine, a tale as moving as it is suspenseful, and an atmosphere as vividly evocative of mid-eighteenth century English life as it is emotionally timeless.

Philippa Carr is the author of such previous successes as Lament for a Lost Love, The Love Child and Will You Love Me in September.
