Debut novel for this author. The Duke of Raeburn, Byron Stratford, has a shameful secret; at least, he thinks it shameful. He lives in the dark, in shadows; only goes outdoors at night or when it's raining.
Lady Victoria Wakefield agrees to stay with him a week, signing a contract with him, doing so to save her family from ruin. She also has a shameful secret......
They enter into an affair that neither wants to end at the end of the agreed-upon week.
Very sophiscated dialogue. Look for Joyce's next book, "The Music of the Night," already published, which is even better than this one.
