Murder at Madame Chambon's

Beschreibung

A murdered lord in a brothel. An innocent debutante in danger. And a killer who threatens to expose a secret that could destroy her. When Miss Evelina Tarot's fiancé is found dead in London's most notorious pleasure house, William, Lord Bellingham becomes her unexpected champion. But now William has uncovered a shocking truth: Evelina is the daughter of infamous brothel keeper Madame Chambon. Determined to bury the scandal that would destroy any chance of a future with the woman he's come to love, he joins forces with Lily, Lady Bradden-whose employment bureau offers sanctuary to fallen women. As they race to unmask the killer, they first must find an answer to the most pressing question: why is the killer more interested in seeing Evelina dead than exposing the secret of her connection to Madame Chambon? For readers who love their romance tinged with danger and their mysteries laced with passion.
