A Twist in Time : A Novel

e-book


When Kendra Donovanā€™s plan to return to the 21st century fails, leaving her stranded in 1815, the Duke of Aldridge believes he knows the reasonā€”she must save his nephew, who has been accused of brutally murdering his ex-mistress.

Former FBI agent Kendra Donovanā€™s attempts to return to the twenty-first century have failed, leaving her stuck at Aldridge Castle in 1815. And her problems have just begun: in London, the Duke of Aldridgeā€™s nephew Alecā€”Kendraā€™s confidante and loverā€”has come under suspicion for murdering his former mistress, Lady Dover, who was found viciously stabbed with a stiletto, her face carved up in a bizarre and brutal way.

Lady Dover had plenty of secrets, and her past wasnā€™t quite what sheā€™d made it out to be. Nor is it entirely in the pastā€”which becomes frighteningly clear when a crime lord emerges from Londonā€™s seamy underbelly to threaten Alec. Joining forces with Bow Street Runner Sam Kelly, Kendra must navigate the treacherous nineteenth century while she picks through the strands of Lady Doverā€™s life.

As the noose tightens around Alecā€™s neck, Kendra will do anything to save him, including following every twist and turn through Londonā€™s glittering ballrooms, where deception is the normā€”and any attempt to uncover the truth will get someone killed.
