Mask of the Highwaywoman
Niamh Murphy, Shanina Conway
Evelyn Thackeray is many things, but patient is not one of them.
When the spirited daughter of a wealthy aristocrat ventures across rough terrain to meet her future husband, she’s absconded by a gang of vicious outlaws, one of whom she finds strangely fascinating.
Bess lives life on the edge, teetering between the prospect of adventure and the promise of fast money. When a prosperous opportunity arises, she knows exactly what to do, but what she finds in the unabashedly feisty young woman is far more beguiling than even a hardened criminal can handle.
What begins as a light-hearted battle of wits soon becomes a desperate quest for survival.
If you want to read about a lesbian in fiction then try Niamh Murphy’s debut historical novel; It's a swashbuckling adventure romance and a gripping tale of love and betrayal that will leave you breathless!
"Another well developed engrossing read, I simply could not put it down. Great characters and plot development. You always know when you have found a true gem when you are sad the story has ended." ★★★★★
"These twists and turns more than elevated the excitement. For me, they put this book in a class by itself! Mind-boggling! I definitely recommend this story to all with a touch of daring in their souls, romance in their hearts, and a willingness to be startled, and sometimes unnerved. Intriguingly sublime!" - Rainbow Book Reviews
