In her new world, they call her Lalla.  How the spoilt young woman named Jemimah Lawley, sole heiress to an opulent English estate, came to be known as Lalla of Shul is a colorful, romantic adventure set in a nineteenth-century tribal mountain village.

During a brutal attack in a British mission, Jemimah's parents are murdered and she is taken captive -- sold into a life of slavery in the remote and primitive kingdom of Shul.  Yet she vows to survive every humiliation -- harboring in her heart the impossible dream of escape -- and return to the land of her birth.

Then as abruptly as her life in Shul had begun, the opportunity appears.  Lalla begins her treacherous journey aided only by an enigmatic stranger who seems to despise her, and whose feverish murmurings about "Stormswift" inexplicably fill her with foreboding as she is led ever closer to the incredible truths lying in wait for her in her native land.

In Stormswift, bestselling author Madeleine Brent has created a brilliantly plotted novel of adventure and intrigue; a story of one woman's unforgettable voyage of discovery, reaching from a savage wilderness through the tangles of the darkest passions of the heart to the extraordinary secret of "Stormswift."
