Summer, 1814. Napoleon is safely tucked away on Elba. The Allied Sovereigns have invaded London to sightsee and bask in public admiration and, almost incidentally, work out the details of the Peace. All London has caught a celebratory fever, from fashionable Mayfair to the rookeries of the East End.
And as these exciting events are taking place...
Julie expects she will end up dangling on the gallows at Newgate, hanged as a thief.
Ned expects he will die on the battlefields of the Peninsula, hanged as a spy.
But then Julie takes on the trappings of a lady, and Ned unexpectedly becomes an earl, both players in a deadly game that will take them from the heights of London society to the depths of the Regency underworld - a game in which not only necks are risked, but hearts as well.
Genre: Historical Romance
