A gripping tale of murder and passion in Regency England, that blends history and suspense, character and plot, imagination, romance and classic mystery.
In 1811, on a summer evening at the Royal Pavilion in Brighton, the beautiful young wife of an aging marquis is found dead in the arms of the Prince Regent himself. Around her neck lies an ancient bluestone-and-silver necklace that legend credits with mysterious powers.
Still shadowed by rumors of his own dangerous past, Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin, returns in another gripping tale of murder and passion in Regency England. Sebastian is lured into a dangerous investigation of the marchioness's death, and as he edges closer to the truth, Sebastian finds himself thrust into a world of hidden passions and disguised ambition. Following a twisted trail that leads from the luxurious wealth of a seaside palace to the most depraved London slums, Sebastian confronts an insidious conspiracy that imperils those nearest to him.
Harris deftly combines political intrigue, cleverly concealed clues and vivid characters for a fast-moving story that will have readers eagerly anticipating the return of Sebastian St. Cyr.
