Lord Elginâs Greek marbles are the talk of London society, so when a death threat arrives, the earl hires actress Dora Fitz-Pennington and the honourable Dr Jacob Sandys to investigate. They plunge into the scandals of societyâs most eminent members, from the Byron circle to the secret world of collectors.

As danger lurks around Londonâs every corner, in the most exclusive ballrooms and the roughest taverns, Dora and Jacob will face not only what has been left unsaid simmering between them but the threat of silent assassins, traitorous acquaintances and the darkest of secretsâ¦
