About the book

Follow the extraordinary journey of Jemimah Lawley, a proud English heiress, as she makes her desperate escape from brutal captivity across the windswept tracts of Central Asia to Witchwood Hall, her ancestral mansion. With no resources but determination and a resilience born of her years of suffering, Jemimah survives the five-hundred-mile trek with her only companion, a mysterious, fierce-eyed stranger named Kassim. But her return holds no joy, for the young woman who greets her at the door of Witchwood Hall insists that she is Jemimah Lawley. Branded an impostor, doubting her very sanity, Jemimah becomes an outcast--until a beautiful benefactress takes her under her wing. But dark, hidden passions shadow her newfound contentment. Only when Jemimah deciphers the cryptic, fevered message Kassim once whispered to her in the Asian wasteland--"Stormswift"--can she hope to find peace and happiness.
