Sylvia Thorpe: Sword of Vengeance

Sword of Vengeance, published around 1975, is the story of Verity Halland who had been kidnapped by Dominic Fane in a desperate love triangle set in the days of Charles the Second.

Allan Kass shows our restoration couple on the bank of a stream where they have stopped to rest. It's a shame we can't see more detail of the couple but they are dressed in the dark heavy clothing of the day while we note the horse in the background. I like the rocks and weeds of the stream which are detail most would omit.
