A Fatal Rendezvous in Mayfair - Beverley Oakley

Mayfair, 1878

The scandal-soaked historical mystery that will keep you turning pages deep into the night...

A murdered courtesan. A clairvoyant's desperate deception. And a crusading editor who could expose everything -if only his heart would let him!

When one of Madame Chambon's most sought-after "Fallen Angels" is found dead in Mayfair, Lily, Lady Bradden, knows her own precarious sanctuary at the pleasure house hangs by a thread. Forced to play the part of a spirit medium to survive, she's already treading a dangerous line between deception and discovery. Now she must find a killer before she becomes the next victim.

Hamish McTavish, the righteous editor of Manners ' Morals, has made his career exposing London's frauds and charlatans. The mysterious Lady Bradden should be just another story-if only he could ignore the magnetic pull she has on his heart.

When their paths collide over a murder investigation, Hamish must decide: pursue the truth, or protect the woman who's awakened feelings he thought long buried.

But as Russian diplomats circle, a vengeful husband closes in, and more bodies appear, Lily and Hamish discover that in a world of secrets and lies, trust may be the deadliest gamble of all.

A Fatal Rendezvous in Mayfair is Book 1 in the exciting London Ladies in Peril series, perfect for fans of Victorian mysteries where danger and desire walk hand in hand.
