Book Summary
It is April 1811, and Jane is staying with her brother and his wife in London while she awaits the publication of her first novel , Sense and Sensibility. High Society is engaged in a whirlwind of parties and gossip—chiefly about Lord Castlereagh, who is widely rumored to be having an affair. But when the disgraced beauty is murdered, Jane suspects that another woman may have been the true object of Castlereagh's affections— and an attempt to learn the truth will lead her into the heart of a conspiracy, one with roots in the French Revolution.
