Edinburgh, January 1732. It’s the funeral of Rachel, wife of high-ranking Lord Grange. Her death is a shock. Still young, she’d shown no signs of ill health.

Rachel is, however, still alive. She has been brutally kidnapped by the man who has falsified her death: her husband. Was this her punishment for railing against his infidelity, or perhaps for being “too feisty for a lady” and never submissive enough as a wife? Whether to conceal his Jacobite leanings—which could have him executed for treason—or to replace his wife with his long-time mistress, Lord Grange banishes Rachel to a remote island exile, to an isolated life of hardship and loneliness, far from her beloved children and where she can never be found.

This is the gripping story of a woman who has until now been remembered mostly by her husband’s unflattering account. It’s a remarkable tale of how the real Lady Grange may have coped with such a dramatic fate, with courage and grace. Lady Grange’s story is at last reclaimed, centuries later.
