Raina Bretton is a rag woman in London's east end when a
handsome stranger appears in a dank alley and offers her a
glittering smile and a chance for adventure. Rothburne Abbey has a
unique position for her, one that will take her away from her
hardscrabble life and give her a chance to be a lady. Things she
could only dream of might be coming true. But some dreams turn out
to be nightmares.
Though Raina has traded squalor for silk and satin, something about
the abbey is deeply unsettling. As she wrestles with her true
identity, the ruin, decay, and secrets she finds at the heart of
the old mansion tear at her confidence and threaten to reveal her
for who she really is. Only one man stands between her and the
danger that lurks within--and only if he decides to keep her
biggest secret hidden.
