“Warm and witty … a pure pleasure.” Harriet Tyce
Morningside librarian Shona McMonagle is a proud former pupil of the Marcia Blaine School for Girls, and deeply resents a well-known novel she believes has unfairly tarnished its reputation.
In 1788 Edinburgh, the city is celebrating Robert Burns on his second visit to the capital. Burns would much rather be back in Ayrshire with his beloved Jean, but his publisher has him touring society – and his supposed muse, Nancy McLehose, is encouraging him to adopt a more marketable persona.
Shona finds herself caught up helping a teenager, Burns’s ardent admirer Walter Scott, while becoming part of a circle of clever, ambitious women. But when she is framed for the capital crime of housebreaking and condemned to the Tolbooth, she must rely on her ingenuity – and her allies – to clear her name. As events spiral, how will she resolve this muddle without bringing Enlightenment society crashing down?
