London’s great river runs as dark, dirty, and deep . . . as murder.

The Duke and Duchess of Sedwick and their small band of friends and family are recovering from some serious losses. They are slowly making steps to get back to normal routines when they receive a cry for help from one of their own. The Waif’s Wardrobe, a charitable place of good works, has encountered tragedy. A good friend is involved and asking for their intervention.

With some reluctance, they agree, but what they uncover is one secret after another. Kara and Niall follow the clues into a labyrinth of lies, blackmail and good works gone wrong, until a complex picture of the victim is revealed, as well as the chilling realization that the undercurrents of the situation—and the danger—go far deeper than they appear.
