Overview
Miss Caroline has doubts when she receives an urgent invitation from a London law firm to discuss her late fatherās estate. After all, the dishonored Earl of Morton died without a pound sterling to pass on to his two daughters. But while immersing herself in helping Mrs. Frogertonās capricious daughter navigate the high social season, Caroline meets with a cagey lawyer, Mr. Smith, who shares life-altering newsāthe earl composed a second will, leaving behind an undisclosed fortune.
Mrs. Frogerton, however, is thoroughly unimpressed with the firmās conduct and suspicious of their true motives. Her instinct proves right when the two ladies find the office ransacked, staff in turmoil, and Mr. Smith missing. The full weight of the situation doesnāt sink in until Mr. Smith dies following a brutal attack on the streetādiscovered with an empty envelope bearing Carolineās name in his pocket.
With a connection forming between two deaths at the firm, Caroline canāt imagine why anyone would kill twice over the contents of a will. Further complicating matters is the amorous Mr. DeBloomāwho claims his mother goaded the earl into making bad investments and promises to link Caroline to her inheritanceāand the disappearance of Susan, her younger sister. As Caroline unwittingly becomes the center of both a criminal case and a sordid love triangle, she must tread with caution while seeking the truth . . . because someone is waiting to reduce her to nothing more than a signature on a dotted line.
