Lady Susanna Derring has spent a measured life in London’s glittering high society, yet her world is controlled by a domineering mother and an unyielding sense of duty.

Gideon plans one last heist for his freedom, but the crime goes wrong, forcing him to seek refuge with the untouchable Lady Susanna. As the two descend into the city’s hidden depths, they discover that nothing is as it seems: Susanna confronts her own desires, and Gideon confronts the ghosts of his past.
