 Book: Secrets of a Lady
Author: Tracy Grant
Synopsis: This intriguing Regency novel follows a 6 year-old Colin Fraser, kidnapped from his fashionable Berkeley Square Home, and his parents, Charles and Mélanie
Fraser, who turn their world upside down to find him.
 
In the glittering world of Regency London, where gossip is
exchanged—and reputations ruined—Mélanie
Fraser is the perfect wife. Devoted to her husband, Charles, the
grandson of a duke, she is acknowledged as society’s most charming
hostess.
But just as the elegant façade of Regency London hides a dark side,
Mélanie is not what she seems. She has a secret—one that could destroy
her perfect jewel-box life forever…and the cost to keep it is an
exquisite heirloom ring surrounded by legend and power.
The search for it will pull Mélanie and Charles into a gritty
underworld of gin-soaked brothels, elegant gaming hells, and debtors’
prisons. In this maze of intrigue, deception is second nature and
betrayal can come far too easily…
Secrets of a Lady is not a new book. It was first released in 2002 as Daughter of the Game. This latest edition has additional content, including letters between the characters Charles and Mélanie Fraser and friends.
Grant writes intelligent characters with interesting storylines to travel around in, weaving here and there with romance, deception and page-turning mystery.
