Edward Steele is at last on his way home and determined to
be in Collingbourne before Christmas—but that was before he met Denley and
Osborne.
Sailing from Africa to England,
Edward meets these two very different men aboard ship. Osborne chooses to
ignore everyone while Denley and Edward find themselves much together. But as
their journey continues, Denley begins to feel unwell. By the time the ship
stops in Lisbon, Portugal,
he is very sick indeed.
Not able to ignore his traveling companion’s plight, Edward abandons
his goal of going home and disembarks with Denley and Osborne. He never dreams
that his association with them will lead to the mysterious Nicola Bettencourt,
a woman who captivates and confounds him in equal measures.
