Targeted by a disabled former spy for the Crown who wrongly believes she is blackmailing his sister, Beatrice Lockwood offers her assistance in tracking down the real culprit and eventually falls for the spy only to find herself hunted by a mad scientist who would resurrect a dead lover.
Amity Doncasterová viaja por el mundo y está acostumbrada a la aventura y el riesgo. Benedict Stanbridge es un científico y espía que ha enfrentado peligros en los rincones más oscuros de tierras lejanas. Sin embargo, ambos se enfrentan a una amenaza que se encuentra sorprendentemente cerca de su hogar. Amity es secuestrada en una calle de Londres a plena luz del día por un hombre enmascarado que la amenaza. Su rápida capacidad de pensar y una arma secreta la salvan, al menos por ahora. El monstruo, conocido como el Novio, que deja tras de sí víctimas femeninas, sobrevive a sus heridas y pronto reanuda su aterradora labor, obsesionado con su escandalosa relación con Benedict. Este último se niega a permitir que Amity pague un precio tan alto. Ambos, acostumbrados a las tierras exóticas, deciden actuar y poner fin al terror del Novio en Londres, uniendo fuerzas para enfrentar al criminal en el corazón de la ciudad que aman, mientras lidian con sentimientos de los que no pueden escapar.
The author of the New York Times bestseller The Girl Who Knew Too Much returns to Victorian London in a novel of deadly obsession... Calista Langley operates an exclusive “introduction” agency in Victorian London, catering to respectable ladies and gentlemen who find themselves alone in the world. But now, a dangerously obsessed individual has begun sending her trinkets and gifts suitable only for those in deepest mourning—a black mirror, a funeral wreath, a ring set with black jet stone. Each is engraved with her initials. Desperate for help and fearing that the police will be of no assistance, Calista turns to Trent Hastings, a reclusive author of popular crime novels. Believing that Calista may be taking advantage of his lonely sister, who has become one of her clients, Trent doesn’t trust her. Scarred by his past, he’s learned to keep his emotions at bay, even as an instant attraction threatens his resolve. But as Trent and Calista comb through files of rejected clients in hopes of identifying her tormentor, it becomes clear that the danger may be coming from Calista’s own secret past—and that only her death will satisfy the stalker...
