About this title

Book Description:

Published for the first time in the UK under the M. C. Beaton pen name, a thrilling series of Regency romances

From the Back Cover:

Public faces and private vices . . .

The upper class of their social circle regards Sir Benjamin Wright with utmost honour and respect yet Lady Emma knows her husband is in fact a drunken, jealous brute who delights in humiliating her both in and out of the bedroom.

His murder was a blessing, she thinks – that is until the constable's accusing finger points to her! But it soon becomes apparent that her late husband hid many secrets and enemies.

And when the practical Comte Saint-Juste arrives on the scene offering his services, Lady Emma is about to discover what the French dedication to l’amour really means!
