Book 2 - 13th-14th August, 1658: Emilia and her cousin Luka have the old gold coin, the gypsy crown, but are travelling with their menagerie of animals in search of the Hearne tribe hoping that this family, to whom they will soon be related, will surely help release their kin from gaol. Luka and Emilia find the Hearnes horseracing on the Downs above Epsom. But Emilia must compete to win their support. Will she have to give up her beloved mare in exchange for the Hearne family's charm - a small silver horse? And can they escape Coldham again?
