To avenge her brother, a Gypsy girl will travel the world Adriana was only a child when she watched her parents die. As hateful villagers attacked her family's camp, Adriana's brother Giuseppe carried her into the woods. He told her to close her eyes, but she watched the carnage, and the memory has stayed with her ever since. Now a young woman, she is on the verge of choosing a husband when her life is again turned upside down. At a quiet English village fair, Adriana is telling fortunes when one of the local nobility attempts to have his way with her. Giuseppe is killed while defending her honor, and Adriana vows revenge. England offers no justice for Gypsies, and so Adriana must take her vengeance in blood. When her plot against her brother's killer fails, she is forced to flee to the New World, where she will encounter a passion greater than any she has ever known.
