Sins of the Past
(2020)(The second book in the Star Elite's Highwaymen Investigation series)
A novel by Rebecca King
After another robbery by a notorious group of highwaymen, the Star Elite are drawn to a new location along the Great North Road. Simmerton is outwardly an ordinary village a few miles away from the busy thoroughfare, but it hides a very sinister secret.
Clarissa is outraged when her carriage is stopped by the highwaymen the whole country is talking about. Not only do the fiends help themselves to her belongings but they leave her in her undergarments! To add to her torment, Clarissa soon finds herself engaged in a deadly race through the countryside to try to avoid not just the vengeful highwaymen but another group of strangers who claim to be the Star Elite.
With a highwayman dead, and Clarissa the Star Elite's only witness who can identify the highwaymen, the Star Elite must keep her safe. It sounds easy, but Zach soon finds himself battling not just a group of rampaging highwaymen and a wilful young woman, but also his growing adoration of Clarissa, who swiftly becomes the most important person in his life - and it has nothing to do with the Star Elite's investigation!
