The following quotation is from Go Tell The Bees That I Am Gone by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 2021 All Rights Reserved. Chapter 31 Pater Familias


The young woman caught a glimpse of William’s face and glared at him.

“And who the devil are you?” she demanded.

He blinked. “My name is William Ransom, madam,” he said, rather stiffly. “Your servant.”

“This is your cousin Willie, Amaranthus,” Lord John said, coming forward and patting the top of Cinnamon’s head in an apologetic fashion as he pushed past him. “William, may I present Amaranthus, Viscountess Grey, your cousin Benjamin’s . . . widow.” It was almost not there, that pause, but William heard it and glanced sharply from the young woman to his father, but Lord John’s face was composed and amiable. He didn’t meet William’s eye.

[> And so we meet Amaranthus 😉. Poor William is destined to encounter all these damsels in distress, but they’re never quite what he wants. My initial reaction to her is suspicion. -- Kathy in PA, Mon, May 01 2023, 12:58:09

[> I have been suspicious of Amaranthus from the beginning. Why was she "captive" of the dirty, slovenly woman? The more we get to know her, the more questionable she becomes. -- DianaH, Mon, May 01 2023, 13:25:03
