Description

In this sequel to The Secret Adventures of Charlotte Brontė, by the author of the Sano Ichiro historical series, the reclusive author of Jane Eyre returns to London in 1851 to meet with her publisher. Uncomfortable with her literary success, struggling with romantic entanglements, and feeling more alone than ever after the deaths of her siblings Branwell, Emily, and Anne, Charlotte tours London's infamous Bethlem Hospital for the insane, better known as Bedlam. And it is there, against all likelihood, that she spots John Slade, the British spy and her one-time lover, strapped to a stretcher. In her efforts to have him released, Charlotte is soon caught up in an international terror plot. "[Laura Joh] Rowland's literary heroine demonstrates all the cunning, guile, and daredevil skills of a modern-day Bond girl while retaining the essence of Victorian morality. Sharply relevant, Rowland's inventive action-thriller delivers enough intrigue and romance to satisfy a wide array of readers."Booklist
