The Aikenhead Honours: A Brotherhood of Spies. Driven by Duty, Tamed by Women?
Joanna Maitland

Driven by duty—tamed by love?Dominic, Duke of Calder, his brothers, Leo and Jack, and their friend, Ben, are the Aikenhead Honours. All four are seen as rich wastrels by the world at large. Being labelled an idler—playboy aristocrat, gambler, rake, or worse—provides an excellent smokescreen for undercover activities.
Like spying.
Spying on opponents, though fraught with danger, is necessary for any country that intends to win the political game. As Britain does. And spies work better when they are not embroiled with women.
The Honours are despatched across Europe to take on ruthless adversaries from previous allies,
as well as enemies from France under its newly-returned Emperor Napoleon.
Working alone, the Honours are vulnerable. But each of them finds the one woman who can help him
fulfil his mission.
Will they allow these remarkable women into their lives, and into their hearts?
And will the women be prepared to accept them if they do?
