About
Some betrayals cut deeper than a blade.
New York, 1777. Jocelyn Sinclair's life depends on deception. By day, she's a humble servant in British Major Hector Radcliffe's household, invisible and overlooked. By night, she risks everything as a spy for the Continental Army, gathering intelligence that could turn the tide of war. When she meets the enigmatic Captain Jared Denning, their forbidden attraction threatens to expose her carefully constructed lies. But Jocelyn discovers too late that the greatest danger doesn't come from enemy soldiers but from someone she trusted with her life…
Present day. When skeletal remains are discovered beneath an ancient oak tree at her friend's manor house, archaeologist Quinn Allenby is brought in to help solve the mystery. But the moment she touches a tarnished silver ring buried with the bones, she experiences Jocelyn's world of espionage and betrayal, and witnesses a tragic fate she is helpless to prevent.
Separated by centuries, both women face impossible choices between duty and desire, safety and truth. But some secrets demand to be heard, no matter the cost…
A gripping story of courage, betrayal, and the dangerous price of justice. Perfect for fans of Diana Gabaldon, Susanna Kearsley, and Barbara Erskine.
