Summary "Barbara Winslow, Rebel" by Beth Ellis is a historical novel set in the late 17th century. The narrative revolves around Mistress Barbara Winslow and her fierce spirit during the turbulent times following the Duke of Monmouth's insurrection. The story explores themes of loyalty, love, and rebellion against tyranny as Barbara finds herself intertwined with the fate of the young rebels, particularly a fugitive nobleman, Sir Peter Dare. At the start of the novel, the preface sets a somber tone, reflecting on the historical context of Duke Monmouth's rebellion and its ignoble outcomes. The opening chapter introduces Barbara, who is witty and charming, as she engages with Sir Peter, an escaped rebel seeking refuge. Their playful banter is interrupted by the patrols searching for fugitives, setting the stage for a romantic yet perilous adventure. As the narrative unfolds, the tension between love and danger becomes palpable, highlighting Barbara's fearless nature and her commitment to helping those fighting for justice, all while navigating a world fraught with political strife and personal risks.
