The Irregulars return safely home to 1803 England, their magic strengthened by their heroic efforts at Dunkirk. But Tory is shocked when she realizes that her ever deepening relationship with Allarde will cost him--everything. If Tory really loves him, she must walk away so he can find a non-magical mate and avoid being disinherited. But does she have the strength to leave the love of her life? Lady Cynthia’s heroic efforts at Dunkirk have won her the respect of the Irregulars, but her sharp tongue keeps everyone at a distance. Except Jack, who seems to like her anyway. Does she have the courage to risk love? And with a commoner? Then the Irregulars are drawn into a dangerous attempt to rescue a vitally important French scientist from Nazi-occupied France. Countless lives are at stake, but when the mission goes awry, will they all survive to return home? Book 2 of the Dark Mirror trilogy.
