How many characters in my back cover copy?

I know it’s a bad plan to include too many characters in back cover copy. But I’m working on some revisions for my Christian historical novel, and I’m wondering if I should name the main character’s wife in the back cover copy. She’s an important character in her own right, with multiple POV scenes, and a lot of my reviewers have specifically mentioned how much they enjoyed the relationship between this couple. Would my cover description be more attractive to readers, especially in my predominantly female readership, if that character is mentioned?

Here are two examples, one with the hero’s wife and one without:

STANDING FOR TRUTH COULD COST HIM HIS FREEDOM. FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM COULD COST HIM HIS LIFE.

It’s 1771, and revolution is on the horizon. Former circuit rider Robert Boothe has spent the last four years leading the tyrant-hating Regulators against North Carolina’s corrupt British government. All he wants is a place for his people to worship God without fear. He’ll do whatever it takes to protect them—and his wife and daughter.

Magdalen Boothe has always known her husband could be in danger. But then Colonel Charles Drake arrives in the settlement to win the governor’s favor. Silencing Robert is his best chance. And Robert refuses to back down.

On one side stands the power of the Crown. On the other stands a man of daring conviction. When his family and flock are caught in the crossfire, how far will Robert go to keep them safe?

Obviously the second version is shorter, but they’re both under 150 words. Does Magdalen’s name in the BCC help increase your interest or just complicate things? Does it imply that she’ll be the one to take action to save Robert (which is not exactly true)?

I’ve been working on stuff like this all day, and I think decision paralysis is setting in. 🙂
