HIS CAVALRY LADY
Book 1 of Aikenhead Honours series
Dominic Aikenhead, Duke of Calder—rich, handsome, a power in the land. And a spy.
In the summer of 1814, Europe's crowned heads come to London to celebrate the defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte. Dominic, Duke of Calder, nominally the British liaison officer to the Russian Emperor, has a more important, secret role. As a spy. For Tsar Alexander is believed to be plotting against England's interests.
Dominic strikes up a friendship with Captain Alexei Alexandrov, a decorated Hussar and the youngest officer on Alexander's staff. Dominic is troubled, both by the enigmatic Russian captain and by the memory of a mysterious lady he held in his arms only a few weeks before. She disappeared like smoke, but she haunts him, first as a Frenchwoman and then as a passionate lady from Scotland.
Even with the help of the rest of the Aikenhead Honours spying band, Dominic cannot fully resolve the puzzles his mysterious lady presents. When he is sent to Russia in the wake of the Tsar and his entourage, Dominic has to operate alone.
Can he find the answers he is seeking in that alien land?
Revised edition of the novel originally published by Harlequin S.A. in 2008
