But the secrets in his family's attic threaten to consume them both, and something—or someone—won't rest until the manor house is empty….

After all, he had compromised the cover of a protected witness to a crime. But was it the guilt that drove him…or a deeper emotion he'd long since buried? Try as he might, Darcy roused feelings he'd rather deny. But for Marlowe, the motive didn't matter. The killer was making his move, and now Darcy was his to protect….
