An Enemies-to-Lovers journey through a Regency London gripped by Industrial Intrigue.
A High-Stakes Financial Thriller where the truth is the most dangerous asset.
To the glittering ton of 1812, Beatrix Halloway is a disgraced wallflower in a faded gown. But in the soot-choked alleys of Clerkenwell, she is the Midnight Scribe, the radical auditor dismantling corrupt empires with her quill.
When the formidable Alistair Sterling, the Merchant King of the City, offers a marriage of convenience to investigate a suspicious wreck and death, Beatrix knows it is a Hostile Takeover of her life. Alistair needs her mind to audit a decade-old conspiracy; Beatrix needs his gold to restore the Halloway name.
The contract is simple: One audit. No emotional entanglements.
But as they hunt for the Ghost Bullion of the lost ship Valeria, the merger turns lethal. From the ink-stained presses of London to the flooded, trap-laden vaults of Amsterdam, Alistair and Beatrix are pursued by a shadowy cabal determined to keep the Crown's insolvency a secret.
As the Account of the Rose reopens and a ghost from Alistair's past returns to haunt them, they must decide if their partnership is merely a business arrangement, or an Unbridled Passion that will burn the City to the ground.
The interest is compounding. The books are open. In the world of the Scarlet Somerset Scandals, the truth is never free.
