Today I'm sharing a teaser from The Firebird, the newest release from one of my favorite authors, Susanna Kearsley. My local library won a contest and Susanna is coming tomorrow night for a wine and cheese reception. I can't wait to meet her! I'm about halfway through this novel and loving it because it features characters from two of her previous novels, including my absolute fave: The Winter Sea. This teaser comes from page 118:"Ye take your children where ye must, but Anna comes with me."
When the captain, at his shoulder, shifted slightly on his feet as though to protest, Colonel Graeme said, "She is my nephew's daughter, and her blood is bound to mine, and for the love I bore her father and the love he bore her mother I'll be damned if I will ever let the lassie come to harm. She comes with me."
