Description
Accept the invitation . . . If you dare.
When the Great War ends, former cryptographer Lady Jill Morgan has only two tasks remaining: host a house party for her brother and decide her future. That changes when she receives a warning from her one-time employer that her guests may not be all they seem.
Captain Richard Darnaway comes to Huntingtower to convince Jill to marry him, not to track traitors like he did during the war. But he finds he'll need all his old skills when a perhaps not-so-former agent is murdered.
Now Richard and Jill have to navigate a guest list of war heroes and supposedly retired spies to find out which one is a murderer … and a traitor.
CW: murder and attempted murder (non graphic/lightly described), PTSD, some references to alcoholism, occasional drinking, fight scenes (again, not gory or gruesome)
