Her love for Wrexford isn't in question. But will being a wife--and a Countess--make it difficult for her to maintain her independence--not to mention, her secret identity as famed satirical artist A.J. Quill? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDespite those concerns, there are soon even more urgent matters to attend to during Charlotte and Wrexford's first public outing as an engaged couple. At a symposium at the Royal Botanic Gardens, a visiting botanist suffers a fatal collapse. The traces of white powder near his mouth reveal the dark truth--he was murdered. Drawn into the investigation, Charlotte and the Earl learn of the victim's involvement in a momentous medical discovery. With fame and immense fortune at stake, there's no shortage of suspects, including some whose ruthlessness is already known. But neither Charlotte nor her husband-to-be can realize how close the danger is about to get--or to what lengths this villain is prepared to go . . .\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAndrea Penrose is the acclaimed author of Regency-era historical fiction, including the \u003ci\u003eUSA Today\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling Wrexford \u0026amp; Sloane mystery series, as well as Regency romances written under the names Cara Elliott and Andrea Pickens.
