Madeline Deveridge is aware of the whispers behind her back, the rumors that she dispatched her husband to the next world and concealed her crime. But she has a far more pressing problem than her reputation as the Wicked Widow. Itās impossible to believe that her late husband is haunting her and her aunt, but something odd is happening, and Madeline doesnāt dare take chances.
Summoning the brilliant, reclusive Artemas Hunt, secret owner of Londonās favorite pleasure pavilions and master of arcane talents, she blackmails him into providing help. As soon as the bargain is struck, Artemas and Madeline find their arrangement complicated by searing desire, and the frightening recognition that the ghost poses a very real danger. Now they must plunge into a world of intrigue and ancient mysteries, where a calculating killerāand a tantalizing passionāwill not be denied.
