Garden of Lies
Amanda QuickThe Kern Secretarial Agency
provides reliable professional services to its wealthy clientele, and
Anne Clifton was one of the finest women in Ursula Kern's employ. But
Miss Clifton has met an untimely end - and Ursula is convinced it was
not due to natural causes.
Archaeologist and adventurer Slater
Roxton thinks Mrs. Kern is off her head to meddle in such dangerous
business. Nevertheless, he seems sensible enough to Ursula, though she
does find herself unnerved by his self-possession and unreadable
green-gold eyes...
If this mysterious widowed beauty insists on
stirring the pot, Slater intends to remain close by as they venture into
the dark side of polite society. Together they must reveal the identity
of a killer-and to achieve their goal they may need to reveal their
deepest secrets to each other as well...
