Philippa Gregory Giveaway: The Books
Tidelands
In the midst of England’s civil war, the remote Tidelands bear witness to the struggle between King and Parliament. Alinor, a descendant of wise women burdened by poverty and superstition, seeks solace in the graveyard on Midsummer’s Eve, hoping for liberation from her abusive husband. Instead, she encounters James, a fugitive, unwittingly entangling herself in perilous circumstances.
As suspicions and tensions rise in an era of witch-hunts, Alinor’s resilience and resourcefulness set her apart, drawing envy and fear from her neighbours. In a time of turmoil and paranoia, Alinor’s fate hangs in the balance, poised on the brink of peril and possibility.
Dark Tides
A wealthy man seeks out Alinor, the woman he once wronged, offering wealth and status in exchange for the one thing he desires most: his estranged son and heir. Across the Atlantic, Alinor’s brother Ned grapples with the absence of justice in the New World, as tensions escalate and allegiances fray under the shadow of the King’s vengeance. Amidst this turmoil, a mysterious widow named Livia emerges from Venice, claiming kinship to Alinor and delivering heartbreaking news of her son’s supposed demise in the treacherous waters of the lagoon.
But as doubts linger and suspicions mount, could Livia’s arrival herald more than meets the eye? With secrets lurking beneath the surface, the tangled web of fate draws Alinor and her kin into a labyrinth of intrigue and betrayal.
Dawnlands
Amidst rebellion against the Stuart kings, Ned Ferryman returns from America to join the uprising against King James, finding unexpected love along the way. Meanwhile, Queen Mary calls upon her friend Livia for aid, leading to a daring plot involving Alinor, Alys, and Livia’s son Matthew. As Matthew is granted the Manor of Foulmire, Alinor becomes its lady, while Ned marches into the final battle for freedom.
