The Tombstone Maker’s Daughter

Thomas Huck stands on a Cornish cliff top watching a beautiful woman on the sand below. A woman he was deeply in love with many years before. He has returned from years in exile after fighting for the King in the English Civil War. A military doctor who has been left with physical and emotional scars. Once a free-spirit, Iben Hartmann has her own scars to contend with. What makes her deeply romantic one minute and despising the next?

The Tombstone Maker’s Daughter is a love story blighted by events in an England emerging from war, plague and the Puritan age.
