A Refuge Assured
413 pages · First published 2018
Lacemaker Vivienne Rivard flees revolutionary France after her association with aristocratic clients makes her craft potentially deadly. She reaches Philadelphia, where rumors that a child in her care could be the lost French Dauphin place her under a different kind of suspicion. Militiaman Liam Delaney is meanwhile drawn into the unrest surrounding the Whiskey Rebellion, bringing their quests for peace together in a young American republic still testing its own ideals. Jocelyn Green combines French Revolution refugees, early U.S. politics, faith, and romance in a richly researched story about people seeking refuge while revolutions continue to follow them.
