Noble Seed (Windsor Selections S.) - Hardcover
The third and final volume in the popular Noble series, following the successful Noble Beginnings and Noble Deeds.
Anna McIntyre, now eighteen, has enjoyed her time of respite while her brutal father Roderick has been sent away to work by Sir Malaroy of Noble House. With her kind employer, Lady Pandora, and her close friend Beth Jordan, only the uncouth behaviour of her brother, Adam, and her secret devotion to her half-brother, Magnus, can cast shadows of anxiety over her happiness.
But little does Anna know that her life is about to be changed radically, by the discovery of a Luckenbooth locket given to her years ago by her estranged mother. Few people know the real story behind the necklace – a story of untold anguish, remorse, bloodshed and blackmail, which has been a closely guarded secret for a generation. Someone wants the truth to be known, but can it really liberate the McIntyre family, or will the price be too high?

About the Author:
Anna McIntyre, now eighteen, has enjoyed her time of respite while her brutal father Roderick has been sent away to work by Sir Malaroy of Noble House. But little does she know that her life is about to be changed radically – all because of the chance discovery of the Luckenbooth locket given to her years ago by her estranged mother.
Few people know the real story behind the necklace – the untold anguish, remorse, bloodshed and blackmail that have been kept secret for a generation. As events of the past – acts of murder, abuse and outrage – are revealed, the truth finally begins to emerge, but can it really liberate the McIntyre and Noble families, or will the price be too high?
‘Fraser writes with a great depth of feeling and has the knack of making her characters come alive. She paints beautiful pictures of the countryside and their changing seasons’
