With the royal engagement on the line, can these mortal enemies turn allies long enough to solve the crime?

London, 1814: As Britain is set to celebrate the end of war and the possibility of a royal wedding, a poisoned foreign prince becomes the first victim in a deadly game of power and intrigue that threatens to reshape the continent.

A man determined to clear his name

Lord Peregrine Fitzroy knows the effects of this poison all too well—after all, it is one of his traitorous mother’s favourites. Either the dowager Lady Fitzroy is playing a new, deadly gambit, or someone wants to implicate him in the crime. If there is one person in London with the motive to set him up to take the fall, it is Lady Charity.

A woman set on regaining her place in society

Lady Charity’s debut season was fraught with scandal. Now back in London, all she wants is to reclaim her status as Diamond of the Ton… and get even with the family who nearly ruined her. When Lord Peregrine shows up in the dead of night, accusing her of framing him, she finds herself cornered.

A crime only they can solve

With the crown demanding justice and their own futures at stake, Lord Peregrine and Lady Charity forge an uneasy alliance. Their hunt for the true culprit will unravel dangerous secrets. Can they trust each other, or will betrayal destroy them both?

Immerse yourself in the Diamond of the Ton Regency Mysteries—perfect for fans of court intrigue, twisty crimes, redemption, revenge, and a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romance.
