It was originally published in 1987 by Simon & Schuster in the United States and by Viking in the United Kingdom, and it is reissued here in this 2003 Touchstone edition. It is the first book in the Wideacre trilogy, a dark and sweeping historical saga set on a Sussex country estate.

Gregory went on to become one of the best-selling historical fiction authors of her generation.
