The Unreliable Death of Lady Grange

Edinburgh, January 1732: It`s Lady Grange`s funeral. Her death is a shock: still young, she`d shown no signs of ill health. But Rachel is, in fact, alive and kicking. She`s been brutally kidnapped by the man who has falsified her death – her husband of 25 years, a pillar of society with whom she has raised a family. Her punishment, perhaps, for railing against his infidelity – or for uncovering evidence of his treasonable plottings against the government. Whether to conceal his Jacobite leanings, or simply to `replace` a wife with a long-time mistress, Lord Grange banishes Rachel to the remote Hebridean Monach Isles, until she`s removed again to distant St Kilda, far into the Atlantic – to an isolated life of primitive conditions, with no shared language – somewhere she can never be found. This is the incredible and gripping story of a woman who has until now been remembered mostly by her husband`s unflattering account. Sue Lawrence reconstructs a remarkable tale of how the real Lady Grange may have coped with such a dramatic fate, with courage and grace.
