After witnessing the brutal death of his father, at the tender age of seven, by a band of smuggling cutthroats, Nathaniel Brookes swears to find his father's killers. As a man he initially follows a medical career, but he turns his back on his comfortable life and dons the garb of a Riding Officer to fulfil his vow. Hated in all communities, ostracised and friendless, he faces more than just his father's enemies. Little did Nathaniel expect, when taking up his duties to ride the dramatic Welsh coastline, that he would meet and fall in love with local beauty, Jenny Banwen, horrifically scarred by a sadistic young member of the gentry. But Nathaniel is betrothed to his first cousin, Hannah. A betrothal of duty. With his loyalties torn, Nathaniel knows his search for the brutes who savagely took his father's life, his sad engagement and his family obligations will be tested. They reveal that Nathaniel has a double duty, to his oath, and to his heart's future. That is if he can stay alive long enough to have a future. Publisher Comments: Against The Tide is an all action adventure with a fine and beautiful love story woven through the narrative. Elizabeth Revill is a wonderful storyteller, bringing history to life through the most evocative characters. She is definitely inheriting the mantle of writers like Catherine Cookson. The Welsh coast has never seen such brave heroes and terrible villians. Trade Books>Trade Paperback>Romance>Historical Romance>Historical Romance, Mirador Publishing Core >1<
