Description
The widowed Evelyn Winter is the master of her home until Colonel Gilath Black, her scorned ex-lover and former servant, darkens her doorstep with accusations of treason. As Evelyn fights to maintain her rightful place as the duchess, Gilath, her once faithful and timid dog, lurks at every corner like a bloodthirsty wolf ready to pounce. But are Gilath’s actions driven by revenge or lust? Does the colonel seek to rekindle their old love or to ensure Evelyn’s life goes up in flames?
