| Summary |
"In the glittering world of Regency London, where gossip is exchanged -- and reputations ruined -- with the tilt of a fan, Melanie Fraser is the perfect wife. Devoted to her husband, Charles, the grandson of a duke, she is acknowledged as society's most charming hostess. But just as the elegant facade of Regency London hides a dark side, Melanie is not what she seems. She has a secret: one that could destroy her perfect jewel-box life forever... and the cost to keep it is an exquisite heirloom ring surrounded by legend and power. The search for it will pull Melanie and Charles into a gritty underworld of gin-soaked brothels, elegant gaming hells, and debtors' prisons. In this maze of intrigue, deception is second nature and betrayal can come far too easily..."-- Provided by Freading. |
