About this ebook

The only thing more lethal than his need for revenge, is the woman who's tasked with bringing him down.

Adrian Croft dreams of quitting the shady business he stands to inherit, of settling down, and of raising a family free from a life of crime. But when tragedy strikes, this fanciful dream is destroyed. All he wants now is revenge. His anger, however, threatens to cloud his judgment, making it harder for him to recognize danger when it approaches in the form of a beautiful woman.

Trained for covert operations as part of a secret government program, Samantha Carmichael's mission is to give British law enforcement a reason to prosecute the most powerful man in the country. But when common sense and duty begin to blur, can she remain steadfast in her goal, or will her loyalties shift as she gradually loses her heart to the one man she cannot afford to love?

-One series, one couple, and the brutal challenges they must face-

If you like What Angels Fear, Silent in the Grave, and Murder on Black Swan Lake, you'll devour Sophie Barnes' thrilling new series.

I could not put this book down. I thoroughly enjoyed the story and would recommend it to those who like historical mysteries with romance and suspense. My only complaint was that the story ended on a cliffhanger. There are three books in this series, and we must wait for all our questions to be answered until the final book. I find it difficult to give books with cliffhangers five stars, but I could not give this excellent book any less than that. I wish I could give it more.
