Highly entertaining.’ – Penny Kline, author of The Sister’s Secret With the world hanging on the precipice of war, Euphemia learns that threats also lurk on a far more personal level… When Richenda Stapleford accepts what she believes to be an olive branch from her dangerous and scheming brother, Richard, Euphemia can’t help but feel that it’s just another act of treachery waiting to unfold.
