A delightful adventure, that is really all Lady Charlotte Beck craved, but it was never to be. Not with two older brothers being the most diligent of chaperones. However, when her family is summoned to Castle Keyvnor for the reading of a will, Charlotte can hardly contain her excitement. Not that she believes in any of that nonsense about ghosts or magic.
Lord Adam Vail has spent the last two years at his grandfather’s estate taking care of his older brother. The only thing that has made being at Hollybrook Park bearable is that he is close to his mother’s Romani family. He knows magic, ghosts and evil are very real and when Lady Charlotte dismisses his grandmother’s warnings, Adam finds himself protecting her from a murderous ghost. Only one thing can save her from a deadly fate.

Lady Charlotte Beck took a step back and glanced at the door. She could make her escape, and nobody would notice. Certainly not her father, who often forgot he even had a daughter when her older brothers were in the room.
The oldest, Anthony, Viscount Redgrave, lounged against a settee, a smirk upon his lips. Anthony enjoyed whenever Michael, the third born, was called on the carpet by their father.
The two brothers were as different as night and day and had been since the moment of birth. Or so she suspected since she was seven years younger than her eldest brother. Anthony had always been the perfect son. He probably hadn’t ever cried as an infant and, more than likely, slept through the night from the start. Michael, on the other hand, probably started flirting with the nursery maid when he was only an hour old. And then there was Harry, the second born, who had recently returned from the Navy. He sat upright in his chair, watching the scene with great curiosity.
Or perhaps it was boredom. Harry left when Charlotte was only seven years old, and she didn’t really know him. She still was not certain if he was friend or foe.
“Explain to me why St. Giles, Blackwater, and Ashbrook are at Castle Keyvnor,” her father, Marquess of Halesworth, demanded of Michael. The gentlemen were some of Michael’s closest friends, and it really hadn’t surprised Charlotte that the trio had traveled to Cornwall with her brother.
“They were with me in Newmarket when you ordered me here.”
