One look at the towering ocean-side manor that is to be her new home, and exiled socialite Susan Stanton knows: This is a place haunted by secrets and riddled with menace.
For Susan, there is no escaping it. At best she can stay clear of the most dangerous element of all--dark-haired smuggler Evan Bothwick, a man whose shaded countenance cannot hide his wicked intent.
But Susan has a secret of her own--a special gift that renders her privy to the darkest mysteries lurking within the walls of the manor and in the labyrinthine cellars beneath. And the only man who can help her make sense of it all is Evan, the very scoundrel and rogue she would do anything to be able to resist...
This Devoted Columnist took it upon herself to spy upon the ne'er-do-wells in this supposed paradise in order to provide YOU, Dear Reader, with the latest on-dit!
SUSAN STANTON: Expelled from Polite Society into desolate Bournemouth, a lonely strip of beach singularly devoid of soirees and fashion. Before she can escape back to London, Susan must outwit pirates--and outshine the local It girl--in order to save the living and avenge the dead. More Gossip!
EVAN BOTHWICK: Wicked charming and sinfully handsome, this devil-may-care rogue moonlights in a band of smugglers. An untimely murder sets his course for revenge. When he meets his new neighbor, however, he's tempted to plunder local booty... More Gossip!
DINAH DEVONSHIRE: Portrait-perfect and deceptively clever, this ruthless seamstress weaves a cunning plot to capture Mr. Bothwick in her web. Will she succeed? More Gossip
GORDON FORRESTER: Most consider the bedimpled magistrate too bumbleheaded to detect a debutante in Almacks, but even Forrester has reason to suspect a conspiracy afoot in sleepy Bournemouth... More Gossip
OLLIE HAMILTON: A cutthroat pirate unafraid to shed a little (or a lot) of blood to get what he wants, and inhumane guardian of an unexpected houseguest. More Gossip
TIMOTHY BOTHWICK: Reluctant smuggler and brother to Evan Bothwick, Timothy would much rather devote his days to charts and sums than crimes against the state. However, his time is fading... More Gossip
LADY BEAUNE: Baron Stanton's fourth cousin thrice removed, will Susan's intended chaperone be found alive? Dead? Undead? No one knows!
