About this item
by Amanda McCabe (Author)
1889
With the wild chase for the late unlamented duke's diamonds finally over, business is booming for Flora Flowerdew's seance society, but she's bored with summoning ghosts with the help of her psychic Pomeranian Chou-Chou. She longs for adventure, like what she had with Benedict, and her Cockney maid Mary and journalist Evie as they chased across England and France in search of the diamonds. A late night visit from Benedict, Duke of Everton changes that. He was the last man she ever wanted to see again, with his frosty green eyes and rough laughter. But he needs her help. His great-aunt Imogen is being blackmailed--and it might turn London politics upside-down! Not to mention Ben's own matrimonial prospects.
Lady Imogen begs Flora to help her hide her naughty past. She insists they attend a country house party at Windermere Abbey, where all the thieving suspects will be gathered. A tangle of politics, passion, fear hang heavy in those lavish corridors, and Flora must sort it out before it's too late! And before her heart is lost, too...
