Every betrayal is rife with pain—but betrayal from beyond the grave? Terrifying. After terror, turmoil and more than their fair share of murder, the newly married Duke and Duchess of Sedwick have reached a calmer, more serene phase, both in life and in their relationship. They are more than happy to settle in and enjoy a bit of peace, until it becomes clear that an old enemy has returned with a view to torment them. This time, they vow, they will let Scotland Yard and the government handle the situation. It’s not easy to sit back and remain a target, though. It’s not a skill they have ever developed. They are vastly relieved, then, to hear that their nemesis—a woman who has vowed vengeance on them both—is dead. But, of course, nothing is as simple as it seems. Why has the taunting continued? How could Kara have possibly caught a glimpse of a dead woman? When tragedy strikes, they can no longer ignore the signs that someone, somewhere, has made a mistake. Soon they are back on the trail of a killer, unraveling tangled secrets of love, loyalty and revenge.

Author
USA Today Bestseller Deb Marlowe loves History, England and Men in Boots. Clearly she was destined to write Historical Romance. A Golden Heart winner and Rita Finalist, Deb grew up in Pennsylvania with her nose in a book. Luckily, she'd read enough romances to recognize the true modern hero she met at a college Halloween party—even though he wore a tuxedo T-shirt instead of breeches and tall boots. They married, settled in North Carolina and produced two handsome, intelligent and genuinely amusing boys. Though she spends much of her time with her nose in her laptop, for the sake of her family she does occasionally abandon her inner world for the domestic adventure of laundry, dinner and carpool. Despite her sacrifice, not one of the men in her family is willing to don breeches or tall boots. She's working on it.
