Mystery Historical
Still stranded in 1815, FBI agent Kendra Donovan
finds herself on the trail of a vicious murderer with a
shocking secret.
October 1815: There is only
one place Kendra Donovan wants to travel—back to her own
time period in the twenty-first century. But since that's
not happening, she agrees instead to travel with her new
guardian, the Duke of Aldridge, to one of his smaller
estates in Lancashire. Their journey takes them through
Yorkshire, a region whose breathtaking beauty masks a
simmering violence brought on by the Industrial Revolution,
which pits mill owner against worker.
When Kendra and
the Duke encounter a band of Luddites on a lonely,
fog-shrouded road, the Duke informs the authorities in the
nearby village of East Dingleford that mischief may have
been done at the local mill. However, it isn't just
mischief but murder that is discovered, when the body of the
mill manager, Mr. Stone, is found brutally bludgeoned to
death in his office.
The Constable is certain the
radical-minded Luddites committed the murder. One look at
the crime scene and Kendra knows they did not, prompting the
Duke to shock the locals by volunteering their services to
catch the real killer. Joined by lover Alec and Bow Street
Runner Sam Kelly, Kendra must sort through the puzzle of
Stone's rather unsavory life, picking apart alibies and
dissecting carefully created deceptions from a growing list
of suspects.
As a special agent for the FBI, Kendra
thought she'd encountered every kind of evil. But when
another, even more vicious murder rocks East Dingleford,
Kendra realizes that they're dealing with a stone-cold
killer—one who has a shocking secret that he will do
anything to protect.
