The Dark Lady

Máire Claremont

"Lord Ian Blake has returned from India a broken man. Years ago, he pledged to Lady Eva Carin-- his childhood companion and first love-- that he would bring her husband back alive. His failure haunts him. But even his jaded soul can't anticipate the shocking sight of beautiful, independent Eva confined in a madhouse. Locked in an asylum, forgotten by society, Eva is adrift in both body and mind. For Ian to break her free, they must cross a powerful enemy-- and prove her sanity to England's unforgiving aristocracy. But the biggest danger of all may come when the secrets of Eva's tragic past are finally unlocked"--Page 4 of cover.
