Description
Sherlock Holmes meets Pride and Prejudice in this bewitching and scintillating romance between an eccentric gypsy detective and a young spinster governess. Harriet Morgan, a shy, nurturing young woman, watches the finishing school she has seen as her home burn to the ground. As the only surviving madame, Harriet must travel the woods with a group of her young pupils and escape the men who are pursuing them. It is on the run Harriet is saved by the renowned detective, Nicu Rowe. From the moment they meet, Nicu is suspicious of Harriet and finds her unassuming and a stickler for the rules. His only goal: to solve the remarkably complex case. But even for the great detective, it is an impossible riddle. What doesn't help is Nicu's eyes follow Harriet Morgan wherever she goes, and it's not only fueled by suspicion. As Nicu delves deeper into the mystery shrowding the finishing school, he finds the beguiling Harriet may be at the heart of the mystery.
