Late October, 1921.

Early one morning, amidst thick fog, a body is found in the middle of the vineyards. Rigor mortis indicates that the person has been dead for several hours, and after a brief inspection of the wounds, the unanimous conclusion is that he was the victim of an accidental fall.
But what was a man doing alone, in the early hours, on a dark and desolate hill? Was it really an accident, or is there a more violent component to the event?
As if that weren't enough, rumors and legends of a supernatural presence wandering the paths near the scene of the incident quickly begin to surface...

Eloy has only been in this town, where his grandparents once lived, for a month. However, this time he's not here on vacation, but as the new police officer in the region.
With the help of an old friend he hasn't seen in a long time, he will be responsible for solving this mystery before his own life, or that of those he holds dear, is in danger.

Lady Cressida Belverst has always been judged as a walking scandal. Oh, how she tries (on some rare occasions) to be proper! When her parents arrange for her to marry a rich lord, Cressida has had enough. She has to leave the Town because she will not be forced to live with a man she doesn't love. But what happens if the very man she's betrothed to is the only one who can help her get out?

And what happens when he finds himself longing for her? Cressida goes to a completely different place, one she has only heard in stories and read in books, with hopes of finding what her heart has always longed for. But love, mystery and secrets will chase her and it will only be a matter of time before she realizes what her heart truly desires. *This story is a standalone title in the Haverston Family series.
