Disgraced Eden Mowbray arrives in Hertfordshire to spend the summer at her family's country estate after exposing herself to gossip in London. As the son of a convicted killer, Wulfric Chaucer, her brother's best friend, is even more of a social pariah. With everyone they know still in London for the Season, Wulf and Eden are thrown together and complicate matters even further by falling in love. With her parents strongly against a union with the son of a killer, Eden is faced with giving up a life of wealth and privilege, or giving up the love of her life.

The Killer's Son is the first novella in Catherine Lloyd's Edwardian Lovers Trilogy where the intertwined fates of three families begin with a murder three years earlier. Set in a charming English village at the start of the "Gilded Age," high society was controlled by strictly defined rules governing interaction between the sexes. Inspired by the television series, Downton Abbey, the trilogy contains steamy love scenes written for a mature audience.
