Excerpt from Broken Fetters, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel
It was a summer's night, but owing to the absence of both moon and stars, it was a very dark one.
As the wearied Lady Vannina de Matra and her friend Laurina Gavotti ascended the steep and narrow path that led, not only to the castle of Nonza, but also into the interior of Capo Corso, a thick mist, rising from the waters of the gulf below, spread itself over the lofty crags and hung upon the walls and ramparts of the fortress like a shroud.
