A silver cup lies half-forgotten in a dank cave among a pile of stolen goods. Yet the tiny vessel and its inscription, Amor gignit amorem, haunts the lives of the still-feuding Poldark and Warleggan families, as Ross, Demelza, and the ambitious and powerful Sir George Warleggan watch their children make the decisions that will shape their destinies. In the closing years of the wars against Napoleon, for Jeremy and Clowance, and for arrogant, cynical Valentine Warleggan, these are troubled and momentous times....

Demelza sees a horseman riding down the valley and senses disruption to the domestic contentment she has fought so hard to achieve. For Ross has little option but to accept the summons - and travel to Paris with his family as an "observer" of the French armed forces. Parisian life begins well with an exhilarating round of balls and parties. But the return of Napoleon brings separation, distrust, and danger to the Poldarks...and always for Demelza, there is the shadow of the secret she does not even share with Ross.

Ross Poldark sits for the borough of Truro as a member of Parliament - his time divided between London and Cornwall, his heart divided about his wife, Demelza. His old feud with George Warleggan still flares, as does the illicit love between Morwenna and Drake, Demelza's brother. Before the new century dawns, George and Ross will be drawn together by a loss greater than their rivalry and Morwenna and Drake by a tragedy that brings them hope....

Written only months before Austen's death in 1817, Sanditon tells the story of the joyously impulsive, spirited, and unconventional Charlotte Heywood and her spiky relationship with the humorous, charming (and slightly wild!) Sidney Parker. When a chance accident transports her from her rural hometown of Willingden to the would-be coastal resort of the eponymous title, it exposes Charlotte to the intrigues and dalliances of a seaside town on the make, and the characters whose fortunes depend on its commercial success.

Soon after, aspiring journalist Martin Bridges takes a job as a reporter at the local newspaper.

Publisher's Summary
The ninth audiobook in Winston Graham's classic Poldark saga, now a major TV series from Masterpiece PBS.
Cornwall, 1812
At Nampara, the Poldark family finds the new year brings involvement in more than one unexpected venture. For Ross and Demelza, there is some surprising - and worrying - news. And Clowance, newly returned from her London triumphs, finds that her entanglement with Stephen Carrington brings not only happiness, but heartache.
As the armies battle in Spain and the political situation at home becomes daily more obscure, the Poldark and Warleggan families find themselves thrust into a turbulent new era as complex and changing as the patterns of the Miller's Dance....
In his Poldark series, Winston Graham explores the complications of love lost and the class struggle of early 19th-century England with a light, comic touch. The Miller's Dance is followed by the 10th audiobook in the series, The Loving Cup.

Superb narration and story
Any one who is a fan of Ross and Demelza Poldark and co. will eagerly listen to the highs and lows of their children. And once again, Mr. Hembrough does not disappoint. He is wonderful with the voices and has such a lively way of narrating the story.

Once again Oliver Hembrough amazes me with his uncanny ability to narrate different voices including men, women and children. He flows seamlessly between Cornish lower and upper class accents as well! He brings the characters to life!

Great addition to the Poldark series!
I've been blazing through the Poldark books, and while nothing compares to the first one, the rest are really enjoyable. The overall pace and plot twists vary throughout the series, but I found The Miller's Dance to be one of the better installments. Graham's grasp of character development and human psychology is excellent and is one of the main points that draw me back for each new addition. Some of the expedition is a tiny bit tiresome, Ross and Demelza being reduced to the family elder positions do a bit too much reminiscing and "telling", but its as acceptable as is the historical events "telling". What's good about the series is so good it far out weighs the humdrum.
