Saga

Murder. Betrayal. Adventure. A Score That Must Be Settled.

A tale of twists and turns following the most unlikely of female leads.

‘How do you know my name?’ I asked… ‘We will come to that, ’ he said.

‘Do you think they meant to kill him?’

War between Britain, France and Spain forms the backdrop to Beverley Elphick’s much-anticipated second novel, Retribution. Our heroine Esther Coad is looking forward at last to starting a normal family life; but with the town under threat, and plagued by shadows from the past, can Esther reach her longed for happy ever after?

This is the second instalment of Beverley Elphick’s trilogy set in the eighteenth century when smuggling is rife and a strong female voice rarely heard.

At the heart of the story is family; not always the one you are born with, but the one you carve out for yourself.
