A night that birthed a monster. The woman they wrote out of it.'Intimate and enlightening. A story that lingers in the mind far beyond the last page' Susan Stokes-Chapman 'A fascinating journey into the dark underbelly of Romanticism.' Meg Clothier'A sensitive, beautifully told fictionalisation that gives a voice to one of literature's greatest muses.' Laura Shepperson 1816. A massive volcanic eruption has caused the worst storms that Europe has seen in decades, yet Percy and Mary Shelley have chosen to visit the infamous Lord Byron at his villa on Lake Geneva. It wasn't their idea: Mary's eighteen year old step-sister, Claire Clairmont, insisted.But the reason for Claire's visit is more pressing than a summer escape with the most famous writers in the world. She's pregnant with Byron's child - a child Byron doesn't want, and scarcely believes is his own.Claire has the world in her grasp. This trip should have given her everything she ever dreamed of. But within days, her life will be in ruins.History has all but forgotten her story - but she will not be silenced. [Wildfire logo]£9.99
