A Formidable Comfort Ronald G Munro

"If love does not alter when it alteration finds, then life must." - Shakespeare's Corollary In this dramatic proof-of-love story, swindles, conspiracies, and betrayals abound. Woven around Shakespeare's Corollary, the love discovered by Ariana and Cedric in Elegance and Simplicity evolves and is tested by an alteration of their circumstances, while another love, unexpected and dubious, emerges unseen until it is proven. The nation is at war. Smugglers are at work. And Gavin Raith is back. Raith is a swindler, the son of a traitor, and a fugitive. He's a man with no prospects and no friends. His future looks bleak - and his life is about to change. "...a man in a desperate way always looks to whatever has been profitable to him in the past. If not friends, then allies or even victims." Inspired to a masterful swindle, Raith undertakes a scheme that could cost the lives of himself and his former friend Cedric Stacey, along with countless nameless victims at the hands of distant rebels. Yet, even deeply entrenched in these worst of times, Shakespeare's Corollary may emerge as an unyielding, irresistible, and unifying force.
