Summary
But as her marriage turns into a prison and her fortune is forfeit, Katherine becomes increasingly desperate. So when she meets a man who shows her a way out, she seizes the chance. It is dangerous and brutal, and she knows if they're caught, there's only one way it can end...
The mystery of Lady Katherine Ferrers, legendary highwaywoman, has captured the collective imagination of generations. Now, based on the real woman, the original 'Wicked Lady' is brought gloriously to life in this tale of infatuation, betrayal and survival.

A beautifully written novel about an incredible time in England's history, with a cast of intriguing and excellently drawn characters who seem entirely real. The Crimson Ribbon is very impressive (www.theselittlewords.com on THE CRIMSON RIBBON)
There is so much more I could say about this novel, but I'll finish with an observation Ruth makes: "People have so many parts it is impossible to know them all." Clements has done a fine job in exploring the many parts that make up a person, and a society in conflict. (www.andthenireadabook.blogspot.co.uk on THE CRIMSON RIBBON)
The writing is subtle, but wonderfully done . . . well plotted and a fascinating fictional insight into a turbulent time (www.ted-reader.blogspot.co.nz on THE CRIMSON RIBBON)
