About this book

England 1648. A dangerous time for a woman to be different... From Philippa Gregory, the #1 bestselling author of The Other Boleyn Girl. On Midsummer's Eve, Alinor waits in the church graveyard, hoping to encounter the ghost of her missing husband and thus confirm his death. Until she can, she is neither maiden nor wife nor widow, living in a perilous limbo. Instead she meets James, a young man on the run. She shows him the secret ways across the treacherous marshy landscape of the Tidelands, not knowing she is leading a spy and an enemy into her life. England is in the grip of a bloody civil war that reaches into the most remote parts of the kingdom. Alinor's suspicious neighbours are watching each other for any sign that someone might be disloyal to the new parliament, and Alinor's ambition and determination mark her as a woman who doesn't follow the rules. They have always whispered about the sinister power of Alinor's beauty, but what they don't know about her and James are far more damning. This is the time of witch-mania, and if the villagers discover the truth, they could take matters into their own hands. Praise for Tidelands:
'Utterly Gripping. Impossible to Put Down. This is the first book in The Fairmile Series, and I can't wait to see what happens next for Alinor and her descendants. A must read!' Better Reading 'The first in a planned series... The author crafts her material with effortless ease.Her grasp of social mores is brilliant, the love story rings true and the research is, as ever, of the highest calibre ' Daily Mail
