About this ebook
A young woman stands accused of poisoning her lover with arsenic—and the evidence against her is damning. She had motive, opportunity, and intimate knowledge of the poison that killed him. The jury fails to reach a verdict, but a retrial looms, and the Crown seems certain of a conviction.
A nobleman-detective attends the trial on a whim and leaves utterly convinced of the accused’s innocence—and rather more than convinced of her other merits. With only weeks before the retrial, he must unravel a web of literary circles, disputed wills, and a victim whose past conceals secrets far darker than anyone suspected.
Racing against the calendar, he enlists a network of unconventional allies to find the real killer before an innocent woman goes to the gallows—while grappling with the uncomfortable realization that he has fallen hopelessly in love with a woman who may yet hang.
