Her name was Margaret Dornton. Evelyn Dade called her Pearl. He and Death were close friends ever since the War of Waterloo. The Ton called him the Captain of Death. Just for a woman to be seen with him was instant ruin. Thus, when Pearl and he were seen together, Pearl and her two sister were instantly outcasts in society. It made no difference that Dade had been rescuing Pearl from a mad dog. Dade had horrible nightmares of the war and felt no other could possibly understand. Pearl, however, witnessed her little brother's death when she was but three. She understood horrible nightmares better than he could believe. ***Elisabeth Fairchild brings out the untold parts of war...the effects left on the ones who lived through it. Many people today still have these nightmares. Many historical facts are scattered throughout the story as well. The story is not only very romantic and lovely, but realistic as well.***
