When Harriet Honeywood agrees to retrieve a family heirloom that was stolen from her cousin by the vile Lord Sutton, she does not expect to be thrust into an adventure. While she had anticipated that recovering the treasure might be difficult, she had not counted on discovering the body of his lordship in the process. Harry soon learns that her cousin isn't the only victim of Lord Scoundrel - the man was in the business of blackmail and thievery. She is determined to undo his wickeness and return all of the missing items to their rightful owners. In this she is assisted by the delectable, disapproving Lord Talisker and the amiable Charlie Lampforth, who are alternately bemused and outraged by Harry's unrelenting enthusiasm for the job.But bestowing justice can be a dangerous game. Not everybody believes that she is on the side of the angels and somebody might just decide to make her victim number two. Can Harry survive her own good intentions and, more alarmingly, can she survive her first taste of love? For much as she might find Lord Talisker irksome, there is no denying he knows how to worm his way into a girl's affections...This is the first in a series involving Harriet, Lord Talisker and Mr. Lampforth. The second book - Why Kill A Countess? - will be available in July, 2013.
