The Mourning Rose

Manners meet magic in this tale, where curses mix with curtseys, and Charm takes on a whole new dimension. Georgette Heyer and Jane Austen fans will love this romantic fantasy, set in a Regency that never was. Eglantine Mayland is this Season's Reigning Toast, and seems destined to make a good marriage. When the wealthy Lord Valremer, a confirmed bachelor, begins to court her seriously, Eglantine's cousin Polyantha senses that not all is well. Too many of his actions seem to be part of a web of evil that twines itself around the Mayland family. And why is a well-known rogue and smuggler so interested in their plight?
