À propos de cet e-book
Return to the gilded Jazz Age as one woman grapples with secrets and treasures long buried in this tale of grand adventure from New York Times bestselling author of Killers of a Certain Age, Deanna Raybourn.
On the verge of a stilted life as an aristocrat’s wife, Poppy Hammond does the only sensible thing—she flees the chapel in her wedding gown. Assisted by the handsome curate who calls himself Sebastian Cantrip, she spirits away to her estranged father’s quiet country village, pursued by the family she left in uproar. But when the dust of her broken engagement settles and Sebastian disappears under mysterious circumstances, Poppy discovers there is more to her hero than it seems.
With only her lady’s maid for company, Poppy secures employment and travels under cover—east across the seas, chasing a hunch and the whisper of clues. As danger abounds, Poppy finds herself in the sights of those who will stop at nothing to recover a fabled ancient treasure. Torn between allegiance to her kindly employer and a dashing, shadowy figure, Poppy will risk it all as she attempts to unravel a much larger plan—one that stretches to the very heart of the British government, and one that could endanger everything, and everyone, that she holds dear.
