Bess is among the most compassionate and intelligent characters.
-The Sun-Sentinel
From the New York Times bestselling author of the Bess
Crawford mystery series, a short story that unravels dark secrets from her close
friend Simon Brandon's past.
Years before the Great War summoned Bess Crawford to serve as a
battlefield nurse, the indomitable heroine spent her childhood in India under
the watchful eye of her friend and confidant, the young soldier Simon Brandon. The
two formed an inseparable bond on the dangerous Northwest Frontier where her father's
Regiment held the Khyber Pass against all intruders. It was Simon who taught Bess
to ride and shoot, escorted her to the bazaars and the Maharani's Palace, and
did his best to keep her out of trouble, after the Crawford family took an
interest in the tall, angry boy with a mysterious past.
But the Crawfords have long guarded secrets for Simon and he
owes them a debt that runs deeper than Bess could ever know. Told through the
eyes of Melinda, Richard, Clarissa, and Bess, A Hanging at Dawn pieces
together a mystery at the center of Bess's family that will irrevocably change
the course of her future.
