Lady Dover had plenty of secrets, and her past wasn't quite what she'd made it out to be. Nor is it entirely in the past--which becomes frighteningly clear when a crime lord emerges from London's seamy underbelly to threaten Alec. Joining forces with Bow Street Runner Sam Kelly, Kendra must navigate the treacherous nineteenth century while she picks through the strands of Lady Dover's life As the noose tightens around Alec's neck, Kendra will do anything to save him, including following every twist and turn through London's glittering ballrooms, where deception is the norm--and any attempt to uncover the truth will get someone killed.
Engrossing and enjoyable. The book is fast and fun to read, and watching a modern FBI agent try to solve crimes without any 21st-century tech to help is intriguing.
A treasure.
The time-travel element is believable enough to keep us going. It's an entertaining genre-bender.
Julie McElwain writes like an angel, but it is a devil she chases through the halls of time in this edge-of-the-seat thriller. Every page holds a new twist.--Carolyn Haines, author of 'Bone to Be Wild' [praise for 'A Murder in Time']
