About this ebook
In New York Times–bestselling author Jennifer Wilde's spellbinding tale of romantic suspense, an ominous horoscope proves eerily accurate for a woman visiting a quaint English town
"You will make a sudden journey and meet a dark stranger . . ."
Author Jane Martin doesn't believe in fate, so when she stumbles across her horoscope in the newspaper one day, she decides to disregard it. But then her widowed brother calls, asking her to take care of his children while he's away at a science conference. He's even booked her a first-class train ticket.
En route to her brother's house, Jane is accosted by one stranger only to be rescued by another. One of these handsome men is destined to come back into her life, because peaceful, centuries-old Abbotstown has been rocked by a string of bizarre burglaries—and a murder. There are no leads or suspects, but Jane's precocious niece Rebecca insists she knows things the police aren't aware of. After someone tries to break in to the house, Jane finds herself surrounded by too many men who say they want to protect her and the children. Suddenly she fears she is a pawn in a sinister intrigue in which she will not be able to distinguish hero from villain.
