Publisher Description
New York Times bestselling author Amanda Quick returns with a thrilling new venture into romance and mystery, featuring the most unusual, highly compatible--undeniably combustible--pairing of Tobias March and his mesmerizing partner, Lavinia Lake.
An invitation to a country house party at Beaumont Castle provides a perfect solution to Tobias and Lavinia’s most exasperating challenge: how to escape the chaos of London for a remote, relaxing--and above all romantic--retreat from prying eyes and wagging tongues. But the lovers’ plans are foiled when their first cozy interlude of the weekend is disrupted by the appearance of a stunning woman from Tobias’s past. Aspasia Gray’s beauty is as haunting as her connection to Tobias. Her long-deceased fiancé was a friend of his--in addition to being an eccentric assassin. The mysterious nature of the bond between Tobias and Aspasia makes Lavinia more than a little uncomfortable. Especially as her first encounter with Aspasia occurs when she finds her in Tobias’s bedchamber...
It seems Aspasia is seeking protection--and solace--after receiving an ominous message that eerily recalls the past. Suddenly the obstacles standing betweenTobias and Lavinia appear greater than just a little London gossip--and far more deadly.When events at the castle suggest someone is imitating the dead killer’s methods, the team of Lake and March fervently pursue the investigation--and each other--as their leads take them from Society’s most elegant haunts--and most discreet hideaways--to London’s shadiest backstreets. As their relationship heats up, so does the intrigue. Soon Lavinia will have to employ all her talents to flummox the scoundrel who so rudely interrupted her rendezvous. And then she and Tobias can get back to more pleasurable affairs.

"Last in a great trilogy featuring 2 of my favourtie characters, Tobias and Lavinia. Once again a fantastic story by AQ. I do have a gripe with this one, though. I thought because it was the last in the trilogy and the 'conclusion' of the romance for Lavinia and Tobias that the romance would have taken a greater role in this one. Never mind it was still a very enjoyable read. I would love to see a follow-up though for Emmeline and Tony??!!"

" This was my first of this genre -- Victorian romance mystery ... it was ok, but didn't make me want to read others. "
— Angelica, 12/27/2013 -
" Finally Lavinia and Tobias are married! It's seems like I've been waiting ages. The book's good. Typical Amanda Quick; although I would have preferred not waiting three books for their marriage. "
— Samantha, 11/27/2013 -
" My wife was reading this book and I thought I would read along too. It was definitely just okay. Maybe the previous books in the series would have made a difference... "

" I was sorry to let these characters go. Great romping mysteries! "
— Stefanie, 11/10/2013 -
" Eh. Not my favorite Amanda Quick by a long shot. I feel as if Mrs Lake and Mr March have been going on a little too long before this book. Good part is, I've decided I get to free up some shelf space by getting rid of this one. "
— Moira, 11/9/2013 -
" This ebook port (as well as the previous one in the series, Don't Look Back) was terrible. I'm not sure who they hired to handle this but letters were missing from almost at least one word per page. Highly distracting. "
— Lyn, 11/4/2013 -

" A trilogy is of course a beautiful thing but I can't help wondering if there might have been a potential 4th here, with Priscilla becoming interesting and the addition of Dominic Hood. "
— Kate, 6/21/2013 -
" I liked the banter in the dialog and that it spent more time exploring the mystery than the bedroom! "
— Ruth, 5/11/2013 -
" The book in a little difficult to get into - this writer is really not my cup of tea. Some friends have told me to read her; however, for me it is not my style. "
