About This Book

In the menacing wings of a Victorian mansion actress Jennifer Randall plays her most terrifying role.

When the advances of her employer force her to abandon her promising acting career and leave her penniless, Jennifer Randall agrees to pose as Edward Baker's wife in order to help him secure his fortune.

"Til Death Do Us Part…
By Victorian London's standards, Jennifer Randall, orphaned and penniless, had chosen a disreputable career -- she was an actress, working with the Gerald Prince Touring Company. At first, she was ecstatic about her life on the stage. Until Gerald Prince made it quite clear that she must accept his coarse advances or find herself jobless. Half from desperation, half from anger, she turns to mysterious and handsome Edward Baker, accepting the offer he had presented her -- to play the role of his wife in order to help him convince his uncle, Lord Mallyn, that he should inherit the ailing old man's estate, the fabulous Mallyncourt.

Jennifer's bizarre new role proves to be her most difficult -- and plunges her into the midst of once-buried evils that again haunt the shadowy corridors of Mallyncourt. But it isn't until she probes more deeply into the enigmatic Edward's family secrets that she realizes this could be her final performance!
