About this listen

Harriet Ashleigh, the much-loved eldest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Darlington, knows exactly what she wants from life. Just one simple thing: the freedom to be herself.

But for a young woman living in the 17th century, freedom is not such an easy thing to achieve. When her family’s future wealth and happiness are threatened, she wrestles with the realization that duty will have to be put before her precious dreams.

She finds herself forced to make a decision that leads to consequences she could never have imagined even in her worst nightmares.

Now she has to fight the whole of society not just for happiness but for her very survival, and she must take up arms in her own eccentric way with startling results.

The Eccentric’s Tale is an intriguing look at the remarkable private life and emotions of a truly unique woman.

This book has become one of my favourites in the Jacobite Chronicles back stories. Lady Harriet is one of those characters that stay with you forever. I laughed and cried through her loves, trials, tragedies and master manipulations. Mary Jane Wells and Will M Watt bring the characters to life with great expression and compassion. Thank you for bringing to life The Eccentric’s Tale.
