Synopsis
A riveting tale of murder, romance and passion set in Regency England, crafted by a masterful storyteller with a gift for relentless pacing and rich historical detail.'Harris' riveting debut delivers a powerful blend of political intrigue and suspense . . . This fresh, fast-paced historical is sure to be a hit.' - Publishers WeeklyIt's 1811, and the threat of revolution haunts the upper classes of King George III's England. Then a beautiful young woman is found savagely murdered on the altar steps of an ancient church near Westminster Abbey. A duelling pistol discovered at the scene and the damning testimony of a witness both point to one man, Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin, a brilliant young nobleman shattered by his experience in the Napoleonic Wars.Now a fugitive running for his life, Sebastian calls upon his skill as an agent during the war to catch the killer and prove his own innocence. In the process, he accumulates a band of unlikely allies, including the enigmatic beauty Kat Boleyn, who broke Sebastian's heart years ago. In Sebastian's world of intrigue and espionage, nothing is as it seems, yet the truth may hold the key to the future of the British monarchy, as well as to Sebastian's own salvation.'An absorbing and accomplished debut that displays a mastery of the Regency period in all its elegance and barbarity. What Angels Fear will grip the reader from its first pages and compel to the finish.'- Stephanie Barron, author of The Jane Austen Mystery Series
