'A twisting, well-paced whodunit alongside the central couple’s scandalous unmarried-yet-living-together relationship. If it were a TV series it might be called ‘Decorum and Sass’. I’d watch it.' Historical Novel Society

'Exceptionally written … another riveting read filled with wit, wisdom and wonder. An unforgettable regency mystery that sparkles with originality' Cindy L. Spear

1812 The Lake District

Despite their attempts to keep their forbidden romance away from the disapproving eyes of society, Dr Jacob Sandys and his lover, the actress Dora Fitz-Pennington, find themselves drawn into the scandals of the British elite once more when William Wordsworth’s prized notebook of unpublished poems goes missing.

When news arrives of a disturbing murder in London – a body pulled from the Thames with a shepherd’s crook wedged in the victim’s mouth – Dora and Jacob are compelled to investigate.

What links a poet's stolen treasure to a high-society murder? And will Dora and Jacob's love weather the storm, or will dark secrets doom their happiness?
