She was an unknown, a newborn baby, discarded in a dumpster on a bed of decaying garbage and lifeless rodents to die, trucked away, and forgotten. Yet, she survived. Through her childhood, teenage, and adult years, she wandered and hid, avoiding violent, unknown men driven to finish what they originally failed to do. What unknown secret drew these men to her? How did the ordinary an unopened letter, a homeless couple, tennis, swimming, horses, a corrupt friend, and a deck of cards change the unknown to the known, the hunted to ...? The path this story takes is not straight; it bends with mystery, intrigue, violence, the unexpected, and more than a few surprises.

"Wonderful entertainment from first page to last."--Chicago Sunday Tribune A past dispute ... When the irascible Lord Darracott's eldest son dies unexpectedly, the noble family must accept their estranged Yorkshire cousin as heir apparent. They are convinced he will prove to be a sadly vulgar person, but nothing could have prepared the beleaguered family for the arrival of Major Hugo Darracott ... A present deception... His clever and beautiful cousin Anthea is sure there's more to the gentle giant than Hugo's innocent blue eyes and broad Yorkshire brogue would lead one to believe. But even she doesn't guess what he's capable of, until a family crisis arises and only Hugo can preserve the family's honor, leading everybody on a merry chase in the process ...
