London, 1807. Lady Abigail Worthing believed her troubled marriage of convenience to James Monroe, Lord Worthing, was finally behind her. But freedom comes sooner\u2014and far more violently\u2014than expected when Abigail discovers her husband\u2019s body in St. James\u2019s Park.<\/p>\n

Shocked by the brutal murder yet unwilling to leave justice to others, Abigail begins investigating James\u2019s death herself.

Hidden betrayals, dangerous secrets, and disturbing confessions reveal that James\u2019s sins reached far deeper than Abigail ever imagined.<\/p>\n

As mysterious letters surface and old crimes cast long shadows, Abigail begins to question her own past decisions. Did she once accuse the wrong person? And does the key to solving James\u2019s murder lie buried within the confessions he left behind?<\/p>\n

With the steadfast support of her trusted neighbor and friend Stapleton Henderson, Abigail must navigate jealousy, resentment, family scandal, and shocking betrayals while confronting a society eager to see her fail.<\/p>\n
