About this audiobook
A young peasant woman becomes an unlikely heroine in this powerful novel about the rigidity of law and the power of truth. When her sister is condemned to death for infanticide, Jeanie Deans refuses to lie to save her, instead embarking on a perilous walk to London to beg for a royal pardon. The story is a rich tapestry of 18th-century Scottish life, featuring the dramatic Porteous Riots and a deep exploration of Presbyterian morality. It is a testament to the courage of the common person and the complexity of justice.
