The Count's Charade

Originally published by Harlequin Historical Subscription #192

A shot across the marshes heard by a lone, disabled woman. The Frenchman in Grace’s lean-to is at death’s door. An enemy spy? Who are the men who seek him? What secrets lie in the papers Henri entrusts to her charge? Living alone but for her faithful maid, Grace’s reputation is at stake. But Henri’s safety comes first. If he is to have a chance, she must hold the authorities at bay.

Barely has he recovered when his pursuers come calling. Pitting those who would interfere one against the other, Grace risks all to keep her Frenchman alive. Will the truth emerge before Henri’s enemies manage to silence him forever?
