Dinah Jefferies, author of number one bestselling THE TEA PLANTER'S WIFE Well written, beautifully described and terribly exciting. I loved this page-turning adventure with a moving love story at its heart Tracy Rees, author of Amy Snow Set in the sultry heat of colonial Alexandria, Beneath a Burning Sky is an exquisitely written story that combines tense, fast-paced mystery with heart-wrenching romance.
