Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In June 1814, as royal families gather in London to celebrate Napoleon's defeat, the festive atmosphere is shattered by the murder of a disgraced British nobleman long believed dead. Eighteen years earlier, Nicholas Hayes, the third son of the late Earl of Seaford, was accused of murdering a young French émigré and sentenced to life in Botany Bay. Disowned by his father, few were surprised when he was reported dead in 1799. However, recent events reveal that he returned to London with a mysterious young boy, who disappears shortly after Nicholas's body is found. Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin, is pulled into the investigation by his valet, Jules Calhoun. Together, they delve into the troubled life of Hayes, questioning why he risked everything to return to England and the significance of the missing boy. As they uncover secrets, they realize that several anxious Londoners had motives to fear Hayes's return, leading to the possibility that one of them may have killed him first.
