From the cover:
"Lady Elisabeth Kerr is a keeper of secrets. A Highlander by birth and a Lowlander by marriage, she honors the auld ways, even as doubts and fears stir deep within her.
Her husband, Lord Donald, has secrets of his own, well hidden from the household, yet whispered among the town gossips.
His mother, the dowager Lady Marjory, hides gold beneath her floor and guilt inside her heart. Though her two abiding passions are maintaining her place in society and coddling her grown sons, Marjory's many regrets, buried in Greyfriars Churchyard, continue to plague her.
One by one, the Kerr family secrets begin to surface, even as bonny Prince Charlie and his rebel army ride into Edenburgh in September 1745, intent on capturing the crown. . . .:

posting off to my Secret Santa!
Sorry for the late JE Wandering-B! I love the entire Christmas package, but have been unable to post due to helping my parents who are not in good health. I very much look forward to reading this one! :-)
