When Sir Walter Pendennis asks her help to stop a treasonous uprising, how can Lady Appleton refuse? Pretending to be someone else, she infiltrates the rebel camp and puts her own life at risk, but it isn't always easy to tell the villains from the heroes and the two feisty countesses leading the Rebellion of 1569 are forces to be reckoned with.
The Bangor Daily News called this "the most satisfying book in the series."
"Lady Susanna Appleton...is a marvelous creation, as tart, tangy, and tough as her sixteenth-century milieu." -- Carolyn G. Hart
