In the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars, London's beau monde is celebrating. Melanie and Charles Fraser have traded the moment-to-moment dangers of the war-ravaged Continent for the glittering world of the British ton.
But behind the ornate panelling and stately columns of this unfamiliar world lurk dangers every bit as deadly as those Melanie and Charles faced in the war. An assassination and a trail of clues that lead back to the war and the French Revolution itself plunge Charles and Melanie once more into the danger that has always been the common ground in their marriage. As they search for the truth in a labyrinth of lies, they discover that the answers cut shockingly close to their friends and family - including the seemingly perfect Honoria Talbot. And that beneath the shimmering veneer of London society, there lies an establishment that is rotten to its very core.Tracy Grant graduated from Stanford University with a B.A. In History, and was the recipient of the Firestone Award for Excellence in Research.
