Heiress On The Run. Laura Martin

McNair was not the man I had hoped and ever since I tracked him down in Brighton

      a series of unspeakable events have occurred.

      I cannot go into detail on paper, but I hope we will be reunited soon and I will tell you everything then.

      The most important thing, dearest Lizzie, is for you to be vigilant. I fear I am being hunted, most likely by a magistrate or one of his officers, but also possibly by McNair. As you are currently going by the name Amelia Eastway I urge you to be careful. I could never forgive myself if something happened to you because of my foolishness.

      I will write again soon, hopefully with a solution to this predicament rather than all these concerns, but until then know that I am safe. A gentleman has given me shelter in his old dilapidated house for a few days until things have settled down. I feel peculiarly safe here.
