Hidden treasure and betrayal mingle with unexpected love within the
walls of Avonthorpe Hall. After studying art under Miss Drake, a
renowned painter, Phoebe Radcliff is certain she can finally move
beyond the childish mistake that's kept her away from home. She is
thrilled when Miss Drake employs her to complete a complicated
ballroom renovation. Everything changes, however, the moment Miss
Drake is murdered. With her last breath she imparts the location of
a clue to Phoebe. Can the biggest secret of Avonthorpe Hall be
true-the rumored treasure real? Phoebe is tasked to finish her work
in the ballroom by Miss Drake's infuriatingly regimented yet
all-too-handsome nephew, Lt. Graham Burke. Determined to fulfill
the promise she made to her beloved teacher to find the treasure,
Phoebe also works to uncover the truth about Miss Drake's death-and
she must do so before Lt. Burke leases the house. But dark shadows
line the gilded halls of Avonthorpe, and soon enough Phoebe
realizes she's not the only person who knows about the clues.
What's worse, she needs Lt. Burke's help to stay ahead of whoever
is hard on her heels. If only she weren't so attracted to him.
Caught up in a deadly race for answers, Phoebe must find a way to
breach the shroud of lies that surrounds every last resident in the
house and, more importantly, face a past she's been running away
from for far too long. Regency romance and mystery Stand-alone
