This one features a fifth member of the London Dueling
Society, the reserved, enigmatic lawyer to the Laclere
family: Julian Hampton. All his life, it seemed, Julian
had been in love with Penelope, now Countess of Glasbury.
And when he learned the horrors she had endured at the
hands of her vicious husband, Julian was instrumental in
arranging for her escape to Italy. But he has never
forgotten the love of his childhood, the woman he had
rescued first as a "damsel in distress" when she was a
girl, and then for real once she had blossomed into woman.
When Penelope returns secretly to London, Julian is the
one she turns to, even though her trust in him puts both
their reputations, and ultimately their lives, in peril.
