The Sister Quest: The Amberley Chronicles

Sisters, lovers and confusion

Jonathan Durwent is rich and ambitious. He will marry a well-born lady, to ensure that his descendants are unquestioned members of the upper class. But first he has a loose end to sort out... a loose end that turns out to be more of a tangle, and soon threatens to overthrow his lifelong plans and priorities.

In a small town in rural England, three sisters - a wife, a widow, and a spinster - are unhappy for different reasons. Prudence chaves under the tyranny of her insufferable father-in-law. Patience is in love with a man who has not declared himself over the years. Charity has undergone catastrophe and disgrace, and is hiding from dangerous enemies.

Jonathan's arrival from London, for reasons none of the sisters could have guessed, is the catalyst for deception, mistaken identities and unexpected passion.

What does a man do when he finds out the woman he has just compromised might be his twin sister?

And what does the woman do, in such a situation?

Jonathan, Prudence, Patience and Charity (Prune, Patch and Cherry when at home) will need to find the long-buried truth, before anything can be resolved.

This is the third volume of the popular Amberley Chronicles. It has its own complete arc, and is only loosely connected to the previous and subsequent books.
