A secret society. A shattered alliance. A love that defies fate.

After surviving war, betrayal, and an assassination attempt, Lord Peregrine Fitzroy has been pressed into service as a double agent-caught between the Queen and a shadowy organisation threatening to bring England to its knees. His only advantage? The sharp mind and shrewd instincts he once learned to hide from the ton.

Charity, Duchess Atholl, thought she'd sacrificed everything to save Peregrine's life. Instead, her bargain with the Queen has cost her his trust-and broken her own heart. Now forced to work together, the pair must navigate the treacherous corridors of court, where every whisper could mask a spy, and every smile could hide a traitor.

As a royal wedding draws near, scandals erupt, alliances shift, and a saboteur circles ever closer. But amid the splendour of the crown lies a web of lies and vengeance-and only Peregrine and Charity can stop it before it upends the future of England.
