A brutal murder draws nobleman Sebastian St. Cyr into the
tangled web of the British royal court in this gripping
historical mystery from the national bestselling author of
Where the Dead Lie.
London, 1814. As a cruel winter holds the city in its
icy grip, the bloody body of a beautiful young musician is
found half-buried in a snowdrift. Jane Ambrose's ties to
Princess Charlotte, the only child of the Prince Regent and
heir presumptive to the throne, panic the palace, which
moves quickly to shut down any investigation into the death
of the talented pianist. But Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount
Devlin, and his wife Hero refuse to allow Jane's murderer to
escape justice.
Untangling the secrets of Jane's world leads Sebastian into
a maze of dangerous treachery where each player has his or
her own unsavory agenda and no one can be trusted. As the
Thames freezes over and the people of London pour onto the
ice for a Frost Fair, Sebastian and Hero find their
investigation circling back to the palace and building to a
chilling crescendo of deceit and death . . .
