King has investigated crimes that still keep him up nights. One of those crimes involved the gruesome sight of Lord Hughes's body stuffed into a sea chest. Though he solved Hughes's murder, and the killer was brought to trial, he will never forget the anguished look, nor the tears that followed, when he delivered the news to Lady Lucretia Montfort as he promised. God help him, he felt helpless bearing witness to her pain. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eShe has no choice but to enter the Lyon's Den!\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWidowed for a decade, Lady Montfort hoped to find contentment when Lord Hughes proposed a marriage of convenience.

The rumors escalate and turn ugly. King receives an urgent missive from one of his longtime contacts, Mrs. Bessie Dove-Lyon, advising that Lucretia has asked for her help finding a husband. King demands Bessie sever the contract. She refuses.
