About the book

Alexandra Drummond is ready to leave her past behind—or so she tells herself. Accepting Vince’s marriage proposal should bring her the stability and peace she longs for, yet doubts gnaw at her. Is it love, or just an escape from the violence and betrayal that have defined her life for too long? Her new home—a remote Elizabethan estate—offers a fresh start, but as she settles into the quiet countryside, the ghosts of her past refuse to let go. When an old acquaintance, someone she never fully trusted, reappears in the same village, unease creeps in. And then comes the revelation she dreads most. The Brotherhood—the organisation behind her husband's assassination—has finally been exposed. But in the tangled web of justice and revenge, can Alex truly walk away? Or has the life she’s desperate to escape already marked her for good?
