Sometimes danger and adventure come knocking, no matter how well you've hidden yourself.
Deep in rural Regency Brittany, Lady Susanna Greyson had kept her prescient abilities from both her neighbours and the arcane secret society her parent's had warned her against, The Guild. And she has... until she finds the shattered body of a wounded British sailor. Against all reason, she takes a terrible risk. Driven by compassion and a strange compulsion.
The British Navy may rule the frigid English Channel, but Lieutenant Arthur Bladewood finds himself far from home. Landlocked, betrayed and shot. With Susanna facing the overhelpful and inquisitive local French garrison officer, it is imperative Arthur escape France. But he cannot leave his rescuer to the brutality threatening to spill over into her home.
Unknowingly, Arthur has tangled them both in the Guild's business and led their most dangerous enemy straight to Susanna. Hunted by smugglers, assassins and the French army - friend and foe alike - he, too, must now risk his life for hers.
