Because I read so many books each year, I have a rather high bar for historical romance novels. I'm looking for a book with a novel plot device that is different from the ones rehashed by many authors. This book satisfies that need completely. Besides a romance, there is a mystery (or two), intrigue, and story twists galore. I finished the book in a single day because I couldn't stop turning pages.
Adam Drummond is a war hero who is now in the Silent Service, looking for a traitor who caused many deaths in India. It is a strange assignment because the person suspected of being the traitor died two years previously, in a carriage accident. Adam is acting as a majordomo in the home of the Duke of Marsley. The Duke was known to have written a journal for most of his life; the truth is thought to be in one of the journals in his extensive library.
Suzanne, the duchess, is desperately sad. Adam and the reader think her grief is related to the death of the duke. Only slowly do we all learn what is really the source of Suzanne's grief. This is a unique story that carefully unravels beautifully. I loved it. and can hardly wait to read the other two books in this series.
