"When thievery, espionage, murder and mayhem arrive soon after Elizabeth Mattingale takes a companion's post in a prominent cabinet member's household, it seems that she might be branded as the villainess. A handsome Russian prince, a beautiful English duchess, a dashing English marquis and several eliglible gentlemen and ladies of the ton all begin to eye each other with suspicion as a country house party turns ugly. Can Elizabeth prove her innocence and keep her heart safe as she tries to discover which man is using her and which one loves her?"

"The Sinister Spinster" is a satisfying mix of intrigue and romance, with a delightfully spirited heroine.  ~Teresa Roebuck, Romantic Times reviewer.
