Synopsis
'The Regency as we've never seen it before!' Emma Orchard, author of A Duke of One's Own on The Persephone Code 1812 Lord Elgin’s Greek marbles are the talk of London society, but behind the scenes a dark and dangerous threat is closing in, intent on taking back that which was plundered. Fresh from their success in exposing the murderous Hell Fire Club, actress Dora Fitz-Pennington and ex-army doctor Jacob Sandys, are employed by the earl to go undercover and root out the culprit. Now, as their investigation brings them face to face with reckless bombers, silent assassins and yet another secretive society with an agenda for chaos, Dora and Jacob must rely on an unusual band of brothers to root out the traitors in their midst and protect the priceless artifacts. Because it is not just stone that hangs in the balance, but also flesh, blood, and the very heart of what it means to be British!
