Publisher's summary

Former FBI agent Kendra Donovan's attempts to return to the 21st century have failed, leaving her stuck at Aldridge Castle in 1815. And her problems have just begun: in London, the Duke of Aldridge's nephew Alec - Kendra's confidante and lover - has come under suspicion for murdering his former mistress, Lady Dover, who was found viciously stabbed with a stiletto, her face carved up in a bizarre and brutal way.

Lady Dover had plenty of secrets, and her past wasn't quite what she'd made it out to be. Nor is it entirely in the past - which becomes frighteningly clear when a crime lord emerges from London's seamy underbelly to threaten Alec. Joining forces with Bow Street Runner Sam Kelly, Kendra must navigate the treacherous 19th century while she picks through the strands of Lady Dover's life. As the noose tightens around Alec's neck, Kendra will do anything to save him, including following every twist and turn through London's glittering ballrooms, where deception is the norm-and any attempt to uncover the truth will get someone killed.

Good mystery

I’ve really enjoyed this & the previous book although I did have to speed up the reading. I hope there’s a 3rd book!

The lead character is awfully ignorant for a semi

genius.

She makes ignorant decisions that put herself and those around her in unnecessary danger. She is acting like a typical woman instead of an extraordinary woman someone would write a book about.

Full of intrigue

A fabulous series to read. It's full of intrigue, historical information of what like was like in the early 19th century, and whimsy

Couldn’t wait to go to bed!!!

I use my audio subscription to “read” myself to sleep but this book didn’t really help me fall asleep, it kept me looking forward to hearing what was coming up next! Love time travel and this one does a nice job playing with time. On to Book 3 :😊 and I’m sure 4 & 5.

Great story, narration not so much

Time travel, historical thriller with good characters and a great storyline. The narration is really bad, but again the story was to good to put down

Well researched and intriguing!

This book is AMAZING. It’s well written and intriguing. I am obsessed with the characters! It’s a shame that Kelley Armstrong ripped off this author’s work. This is hands down the better version! Give it a shot, you won’t be disappointed

Great story but ugh

I admire the span of voices required to narrate this fabulous story - I love all of the Kendra Donovan stories - but, struggle with the narration. Over pronunciation used in some character voices grates on the nerves.
