   Summary

   Scotland, 1816: Jemma Simmons has inherited her late father Alistair’s crumbling estate and is trying her best to go from second-class governess to lady of the house in order to manage it well. She has the support of her house staff, the village minister, and a kind and handsome man courting her.

   Things take a turn when her presumed dead half-brother Fitz returns from Italy, determined to save her from an unwise marriage. The longer he stays, the deeper Jemma is drawn into a web of obsession, murder, betrayal, and dark desires she can't escape. Will Fitz be the end of her life and all she holds dear? Or just the beginning?
