  A high-society summer. A missing ring. A romance put to the test. 
  Henrietta Von Harmon thought accepting Inspector Clive Howard's proposal was the hard part—until she discovers he's heir to a North Shore fortune and she's expected to spend the summer at his family's sprawling Winnetka estate. While Clive returns to an important case in Chicago, Henrietta must navigate the treacherous waters of high society under the withering gaze of his mother, who clearly thinks her son could do better. 
  Finding herself more at ease with the servants than the family, Henrietta becomes intrigued when an elderly housemaid claims her precious ring has been stolen. But what begins as a simple mystery to prove herself useful spirals into something far more sinister. 
  As Henrietta uncovers long-buried family secrets—including shocking revelations about her own mother's past—she and Clive must confront hard truths about the worlds that divide them. And when danger from their past resurfaces in the last place they expect, Henrietta must decide: Can she truly belong in Clive's world? And more urgently—will she survive long enough to find out?

  Bloody Nick Turnhouse has returned from Mauritius to Bombay, where he is welcomed with orders received from London by the overland route. He is to frighten the Spanish by showing himself in a powerful ship of war off Manila and then along the Pacific coast of South America, lands which have not seen an enemy in a generation. 
   
   
   
  Unfortunately, the expected ration carrier has failed to arrive and is presumed lost and there are no barrels of beef and bags of biscuit to fill his depleted hold. 
   
   
   
  Nick sets off on a year-long voyage with less than six months of stores to hand. He has to scavenge food that his conservative crew will eat, from lands that do not grow wheat and where the beef cow is a rarity. The best hope, he suspects, must be to capture Spanish ships and garrisons and rob them of their rations. 
   
   
   
  He makes sure that the spirits room is stacked high with rum.
