Beneath a Silent Moon

London, 1817: Under cover of night, a cloaked stranger steals into the city to perform a grim task that began in the shadows of the past...

On the same evening, amid the splendor that is Glenister House, London's beau monde celebrates, still flush with victory in the Napoleonic Wars. Among the guests are Melanie and Charles Fraser, one of society's most intriguing couples--a fast-rising MP and former intelligence agent and his exquisite war bride, an amateur on these civilized battlegrounds. It is to be an evening of stunning revelations climaxing with a secret summons that will pull the Frasers back into the world of intrigue they have lately abandoned. Beneath a silent moon, Charles and Melanie must untangle a dark web of lies that spans generations and now threatens the fate of nations. The stakes of this game are frighteningly high: the lives of those Charles Fraser holds most dear and the trust of the woman with whom he shares his life. And the truth is a deadly weapon that could lead to scandal, tragedy ... and murder.
