Overview
In fog-shrouded London, secrets lurk in every shadow and love becomes the most dangerous risk of all.
When Samira Sayre's sea captain father disappears, she takes over his inn on the Thames, determined to keep it open until his return. Having left her Quaker roots for evangelical faith, she dedicates herself to charity work at Marshalsea Prison. But she didn't expect that the prison's new chaplain would make her question everything she thought she knew about trust--and her own heart.
Posing as a prison chaplain, former Bow Street officer Hale Dunleavy works for London's Marine Police, tracking the same criminals who may have claimed Samira's father. But the last thing he needs is to find himself undone by the innkeeper's daughter. After the two collide during a prison riot, Hale begins to wonder if the most perilous thing he could encounter isn't the felons he's hunting but the danger of falling in love.
As Hale and Samira's investigation pulls them deeper into London's shadows, what grows between them becomes as impossible to ignore as the coming storm. The truth about Samira's father will demand everything from them, but the truth about their own hearts may prove the hardest to face.
Laura Frantz, the queen of yearning, draws readers into London, England, where romance blooms against a backdrop of spies, secrets, and high-stakes intrigue. This clean, faith-based, friends-to-more historical novel will captivate romance lovers and book clubs alike.
