Sinopsis

Twenty Years After: 
• With a picture of Alexandre Dumas
, a detailed biography of him is added.
• All content is redone in a new style, with the author's name and the title of the novel at the top.
• For a better glance, a small graphic is added at the beginning of each chapter.

Twenty Years After begins in 1648, with the Red Sphinx, Cardinal Richelieu, dead, France ruled by a regency in the midst of civil war, and King Charles I's monarchy hanging by a thread across the English Channel. These are difficulties that a sword thrust will not address, as d'Artagnan will discover. The musketeers confront maturity and its greatest difficulty in Twenty Years After: you fail sometimes. We begin to glimpse the actual qualities of Dumas's great heroes in how the four companions respond to failure and rise above it.

    A Macpherson Clan Novel
     
    Tess Lindsay has spent most of her life on the remote Isle of May, uncertain of her identity. Raised by the two sole inhabitants of the island, she is left to fend for herself after their deaths, until a stranger washes ashore in a storm. Tess pulls him from the surf, not knowing that in saving the Highlander she is saving herself.
    If good looks and a taste for adventure are a curse, Colin Macpherson is destined for ruin. Until he ends up a castaway on Tess's windswept island, he's been roaming the seas, seeking fame, fortune…and a different girl in every port. But his fascination for this strong-willed lass goes beyond her wild beauty, intriguing him as no girl ever has.
       As Colin gains her trust, Tess reveals what little she knows about herself and her past. From her scant clues, though, Colin comes to one conclusion: he must return Tess to the mainland to reclaim her birthright, even if it means losing her to a destiny that does not include him.
