Lucy Craddock-Hayes almost stumbles over a dead man while walking one morning. Upon closer examination, she discovers he is not quite dead yet, but may soon be if she doesn't get him some help. In spite of her servant's reluctance, she sends him for help, and they take him to her house. Her father maintains that he will not have the man in his house, but Lucy calmly directs the servants to take him to a spare room. Viscount Simon Iddesleigh is engaged upon revenge, seeking out his enemies one by one, and challenging them to duels. He has killed two of them so far, and has three more before he is avenged. His enemies hired murderers to do away with him, and he was caught off guard. He cannot allow Miss Craddock-Hayes to become a target for his enemies, but she is determined to befriend him. Thoroughly enjoyable book.
