Lady Emily Vale is the eldest daughter of an Earl. She is unmarried by choice. She is a bit of an ugly duckling in her family and never really fit in with her beautiful sisters. She is also the most famous, or notorious pamphleteer in the land, Lady Justice.
Colin Gray is the new Earl of Egremoor since the death of his father. He is also a long time member of the Falcon Club. The Peregrine has been Lady Justice’s target for a long time now.
Emily has not heard from her sister Amaranth in more than six months. She is worried and as a gently bred female, cannot go in search of her alone. She is forced to enlist the aid of the Peregrine, not knowing that he is her childhood friend Colin. Upon receiving new information, she sets out herself on an adventure she never imagined.
I found this novel both intriguing and entertaining from the first page until the last. The author has created two very strong characters in Emily and Colin. Both are trying to change their world for the better. Colin has had to overcome a childhood handicap wherein he was unable to speak until early adolescence. His parents’ unhappy marriage and the tragedy of his mother’s death also affected both Emily and himself. I enjoyed reading of the two of them getting to know and love each other again. The subplot of the highwayman posing as the Earl was intriguing and added much to the story.
