Book desription: Scranton, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.: Harpercollins Childrens Books, 2002. First Edition. Hard Cover. New/New. Ages 12 and up. Written by the author of The Indian in the Cupboard, this story takes place in China and Scotland from 1067-1603. Bruce MacLennan commands the building of a castle with a dungeon below; during construction he travels to China where he joins a troop of mercenary soldiers. In a poor teahouse he encounters a child named Peony and, on impulse, buys her to be his attendant. After many adventures they return to Scotland where MacLennan's castle-and his planned revenge on a rival Scotsman-await him. Within the dark walls Peony finds a new life and unexpected happiness. For MacLennan the time has come to fill his dungeon with its destined prisoner. He does not dream of the terrible twist of fate-one that will not lock away his enemy-but the most precious person in his life. 279 pages. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
