The Case of the Curate

Once allies in mischief, a new partnership is forming…

When a housemaid is murdered during Lord Chadbon’s country house party, it is his most convenient assessment that the curate did it. Rupert Grande is new to the neighborhood, clearly disreputable, and he discovered the body in suspicious circumstances.
Moreover, the curate’s discreet arrest ensures no scandal touches Chadbon or his important guests.
Only Kate, young wife of an ambitious politician, knows that Rupert is innocent—at least of murder—and refuses to let the accusation stand. But then, no one else knows his true identity or grew up as his best friend.
The ton always treated the ordination of amiable rakehell Lord Rupert Grande as a huge joke. So did Rupert. So why has he turned up incognito as an apparently dutiful rural curate? And what was the murdered maid to him?
Hampered by childhood loyalties and her host’s insistence on discretion, Kate must discover the real culprit and free her old friend. Along the way, she learns some unpleasant truths about those she has regarded as decent men.

Worse, being thrown together with Rupert again stirs up old and new emotions—an improper attraction that must never be spoken.
