Book description
The perfect daughter...secrets within secrets, lies within lies.
Adopted daughter Eleanor Becket is dedicated to her family and its
welfare. She is also a commendable commander, and a keeper of secrets,
most especially her own. Who would ever expect this fragile beauty, with
her quiet ways and her unfortunate limp, to be capable of anything more
than her accomplishments at embroidery and her mastery of musical
instruments? Only Jack Eastwood feels the need to look more deeply at
this self-proclaimed spinster, and what he sees--and the long-ago crime
he suspects--lead both Jack and Eleanor to the very edge of desire and
danger. As the Beckets feel the outside world looking ever more closely
at the nocturnal activities taking place in Romney Marsh, as the Black
Ghost rides yet again, Eleanor Becket is forced to risk her family, her
chance at love, even her life, in one desperate gamble. The perfect
