A royal warning. A brother accused. A truth that will change everything.

London, 1889. When Lady Rosalynd and the Duke of Steele's investigative partnership draws the censorious notice of Victorian society, Queen Victoria herself cautions them to keep their distance, lest they be forced into a marriage neither of them wants.

But distance becomes impossible when Scotland Yard arrives at Rosehaven House with alarming news. A body has been found near Kew Gardens, and a pistol belonging to Rosalynd’s brother lies at the scene. With her brother's life and reputation at stake, she has no choice but to seek the help of the man she has vowed to avoid.

As Rosalynd and Steele pull at the threads, the knot leads to patient, careful hands that have been moving pieces into place long before the body appeared at Kew—the hands of a shadowy figure responsible for unspeakable crimes. Soon they realize, clearing her brother will not be enough. They must tie the villain to every atrocity he orchestrated and secure justice for the innocents he so cruelly harmed.

All while resisting a longing that threatens to undo them both.
