Back Cover Blurb:
Aged 14, Kirsten was sold to a tinker who raped her and held her captive until the day they were seperated by a storm. Rescued from the flood, she gave birth just as the mistress of the great house nearby was told that her newborn son was dead. The two met and a secret bargain was struck. ( )
