Cold and brooding, Julian Greycourt, the heir to the Windemere dukedom, has always known that his uncle the duke was responsible for his mother’s death. Now he’s determined to exact revenge against his uncle—if he can find the proof. But Julian hides a secret so explosive it will destroy him if it’s ever revealed, and the duke is watching. The last thing he needs is a distractingly sensual woman whose very presence threatens to destroy his plans.

Awaited

Enjoy Hoyt's works, including Thief of Shadows and Duke of Sin. In this work, admire the development of the primary characters and their believable dynamic. The FMC is a bit of an inversion of Winter Makepeace in that she is a contemplative virgin who takes the dominant role in intimacy.
There's a lot of exposition in this series - "tell", rather than "show": it's interesting to observe where the author's attention is engaged. Several secondary characters set up for possible stories of their own,and I hope the author continues. Slight contradictions to the overall series mystery seem like shifts in developing that story - most noteably that in a prior book the MMC's inner voice 'if only I could discover what happened' while in this book, his knowledge is different

lead on you unmitigated scoundrel
Revisado: 09-13-23
A joy. The narration is up to the caliber of the story. I laughed out loud and ended with true affection for many of the key characters. Even the unmitigated scoundrels, and especially their boon companions.

Gretel - yes, that Gretel - is now 35, very large, still living with her brother, Hans, and working as a private investigator. The small, sleepy town of Gesternstadt is shaken to its pretty foundations when the workshop of the local cart maker is burned to the ground, and a body is discovered in the ashes. It is Gretel who notices that the cadaver is missing a finger. At first she does not see this as significant, as her mind is fully focused on a new case.
