When Lord Ashworth is found brutally murdered, Sebastian St. Cyr is called in to help catch the killer. Just seven months before, Sebastian had suspected Ashworth of kidnapping and murder of a string of vulnerable street children. But Sebastian was never able to prove Ashworths complicity. Nor was he able to prevent his troubled niece Stephanie from marrying him, a marriage that quickly turned into a sham. Now mounting evidence suggests that Ashworths killer was a woman. Sebastian is tasked with unraveling the shocking surrounding Ashworths life before Stephanie is punished for his death.
