Wrexford and Sloane must unravel
secrets within secrets—including a few that entangle their own hearts—when they
reunite to solve a string of shocking murders that have horrified Regency
London...
Though Charlotte Sloane’s secret identity as the
controversial satirical cartoonist A.J. Quill is safe with the Earl of
Wrexford, she’s ill prepared for the rippling effects sharing the truth about
her background has cast over their relationship. She thought a bit of space
might improve the situation. But when her cousin is murdered and his twin
brother is accused of the gruesome crime, Charlotte immediately turns to Wrexford
for help in proving the young man’s innocence. Though she finds the brooding
scientist just as enigmatic and intense as ever, their partnership is now
marked by an unfamiliar tension that seems to complicate every encounter.
Despite this newfound complexity, Wrexford and Charlotte
are determined to track down the real killer. Their investigation leads them on
a dangerous chase through Mayfair’s glittering ballrooms and opulent drawing
rooms, where gossip and rumors swirl to confuse the facts. Was her cousin
murdered over a romantic rivalry . . . or staggering gambling debts? Or could
the motive be far darker and involve the clandestine scientific society that
claimed both brothers as members? The more Charlotte and Wrexford try to unknot
the truth, the more tangled it becomes. But they must solve the case soon,
before the killer’s madness seizes another victim...
