Description
A house of secrets, an impossible attraction
On a personal quest, Constance Silver, who runs Mayfair’s most exclusive brothel, has lied her way into Greenforth Manor, home of respectable and charismatic provincial banker, Walter Winsom. She feels quite safe from recognition until Solomon Grey joins the party.
Aloof and strangely exciting, Solomon is one of the wealthiest men in London, so what does he want with any of the small players gathered at Greenforth? More immediately, will he give Constance away? He saved her life once, with most disturbing effects on her, and she is still magnetically drawn to him. But he is one of the few men she cannot read or influence.
When they discover their host’s murdered body together, they have to overcome distrust of each other to investigate. Everyone in the house seems to have had both motive and opportunity to kill him, so Constance and Solomon must uncover many secrets and set a dangerous trap in order to reach the truth.
But is the murderer one step ahead of them?
And if they both survive, will they part forever?

Murder in Moonlight

What a delightful read. More mystery than romance but delightfully captivating. Captured my attention from prologue and never let go. Extremely well written with rounded characters even very secondary ones, believable mystery and page turner. Author is new to me but I’ll definitely be reading by her.

What an excellent start to the new series.
We met Solomon and Constance briefly in one of the books with Lady Grizelda Tizsa and Dragan. In that book Constance was helping Griz dress as a prostitutue in order to retrieve some diamonds. The Diamonds were owned by Solomon.
They are invited to the house party separately. Constance wants to ask questions of the host as does Solomon. I guessed who Solomon was searching for...lets hope this is answered in other books. The host is killed and our intrepid duo seek to solve the mystery and help out the police. The police recognise that Constance is in disguise but don't let the cat out of the bag. About two thirds of the way through I realised who must have done the deed.
What I love about this author's writing is the characterisation of all the players, even the smaller roles such as Owen the boot boy. Looking forward to more stories and heartily recommend.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own
