For all those who were entranced by Ross Poldark in Winston Graham’s Poldark comes a dramatic series of novels that will sweep you away to 18th century Cornwall.
Cornwall, 1786. Twenty years ago, fate denied Adam Loveday his birthright: the family estate, Trevowan, and the boatyard that his father is struggling to maintain. And the intense childhood rivalry between Adam and his elder twin St John continues to govern their fated passions and chequered fortunes.

Aware of his father’s increasing disapproval, St John fears that the Loveday yard will be given to Adam after all, and puts into motion a plan to ensure that Adam will never get what his heart desires: the boatyard – and Meriel Sawle, the seductive daughter of the local innkeeper, whose violent family are infamous in the smuggling trade…
