Description
xAn exquisite historical thriller from the author of the electrifying The Poison Bed. Three sisters.
Three secrets.
Three ways to fall . . . Forcibly seduced by George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham and King's favorite, doctor's daughter Hester was cast aside to raise her illegitimate son, Rafe, alone and in secret. She hopes never to see his father again. Melis's visions cause disquiet and talk. She sees what others can't - and what has yet to be. She'd be denounced as a witch if Hester wasn't so carefully protective. Young Hope's beauty marks her out, drawing unwelcome attention to the family. Yet she cannot always resist others' advances. And her sisters cannot always be on their guard. So when the powerful Duke decides to claim his son against Hester's wishes, the sisters find themselves almost friendless and at his mercy. But are their secrets their undoing or their salvation? Because in the right hands a secret is the deadliest weapon of all . . .
