Summary
Edward Teach has been a part of MI-5 for over twenty years, a ruthless agent known for closing cases no matter the cost. Through his long career, though, he's never encountered a person as strange and frustrating as the Gentleman.
The man is a ghost, a quiet hand that slices through the underbelly of the upper class through blackmail, robbery and hacking that leaves the wealthy fearing drawing his attention. Ed's tried to corner him, but every time the Gentleman eludes him in an elaborate game of cat and mouse. It's become his obsession, his calling, and for years he's remained little more than a phantom in the underworld.
Enter Stede Bonnet, a computer specialist that partners with Ed to try and trace down the digital footprints of the Gentleman. Stede's bright and brilliant, funny and uniquely positioned to understand the motivations of the upper class. He's also handsome and fascinating in a way that makes Ed painfully aware he's falling for his partner.
