Shivers

Not Betrothed, But Beguiled In Artistic Circles She Is The Divine Dita, Paris's Most Sought-after Nude Model. But Now She's Not So Much Posing As Playing A Role: Fiancée To The Next Earl Of Athal. The Charade Is A Favor To Dita's Friend, Eddie Jago, A Dissolute Painter…and The Aforementioned Heir. As Deceptions Go, It Is Innocent Compared To What Will Come. On The Grim Cornish Coast, From The Ashes Of A Ruined Castle Rises The Jagos' Sumptuous New Manor House. The Fresh-hewn Stone, However, Cannot Absorb The Blood Of Centuries Or Quiet The Echoes Of Past Crimes. Dita Struggles To Decipher The Family: The Infirm Earl And His Inscrutable Wife; Resentful Eddie; Sheltered Sister Eleanor. And Cad: The Handsome Second Son Whose Reputation Is Spotless In Business—scandalous Everywhere Else. Drawn By Friendship, Ensnared By Lust, Dita Uncovers A Sordid Tangle Of Murder, Desire And Madness. It Will Lay Her Bare As No Portraitist Has Done Before.
