Everyone believes Lady Evangeline is dead…her survival depends on it. If not for Lady Evangeline’s secret training in weaponry, her corpse would be rotting in a ditch. Instead, she finds refuge in a crumbling abbey—and new purpose. With her child dead and her husband lost to the lies of a devious plotter, Evangeline vows to fight for the starving widows and children in the villages surrounding the abbey. Masquerading as a nun by day, and an armed vigilante by night, she will free these people no matter what it takes. Lord Henry Stanton still grieves the death of Evangeline. How can he ever shed the weight of guilt over not protecting his beautiful wife? She never even had the chance to know their precious baby girl, now healthy and thriving. Though he failed to keep Evangeline safe, he will stop at nothing to protect their daughter from the intrigue and corruption threatening not just the royal court, but the whole land. When the worst happens, Henry must join forces with a nun—or is she Evangeline? They must overcome lies, treachery, and a broken marriage to save their innocent daughter—and the country—before it’s too late. Escape to another century in this action-packed inspirational medieval romance!

"Two meanings of the word 'count' are in play in this work; (i) to be significant, and (ii) the act of determining the total number of something. In Democracy Counts, Davis reflects on the electoral system, which makes a parliament accountable to the people. Small watercolour marks represent a vote for different parties. Each vote has been meticulously numbered in graphite pencil. The votes accumulate as the reader proceeds through the thirty-two pages of the book, until the total number is determined for each party and translated into seats in parliament. Each book in the edition has a slightly different outcome. As the artist painted votes and drew numbers under them (many thousands during the production of the edition), she thought about the contribution to democracy that each person makes as they enter a voting booth and mark their electoral paper with those finely-sharpened, but rather short graphite pencils provided by the Australian Electoral Commission. Tucked inside the back cover of Democracy Counts is a photograph Davis took on the streets of Paris during the 2012 French Presidential election, a comic reminder that not everyone believes in the power of the vote."--Exhibition catalogue.
