When Kendra Donovan�s plan to return to the 21st century fails, leaving her stranded in 1815, the Duke of Aldridge believes he knows the reason�she must save his nephew, who has been accused of brutally murdering his ex-mistress. Former FBI agent Kendra Donovan�s attempts to return to the twenty-first century have failed, leaving her stuck at Aldridge Castle in 1815. And her problems have just begun: in London, the Duke of Aldridge�s nephew Alec�Kendra�s confidante and lover�has come under suspicion for murdering his former mistress, Lady Dover, who was found viciously stabbed with a stiletto, her face carved up in a bizarre and brutal way. 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.
