I have only one complaint and that is that I was a bit annoyed with the constant referrals to various characters from other books, which I haven't read. I felt like I was missing a good bit of the story at times. However the author developed the story well enough and I enjoyed it.Basically the H is part of a secret group who work for the government. He has also been charged for keeping an eye on his late mentor's daughter. He plays the role of a rake but manages to interfere with all of the h's relationships and he prevents her from taking up a governess job. The h catches him at a ball kissing her stepsister and this is where she sees the tattoo on his shoulder.The story develops with the two of them constantly bumping into each other. He is trying to convict her stepfather of crimes going back years. The h is trying to solve the mystery of the pendant that she saw years ago when she and some friends were held up by highwaymen.It is entertaining and a short read.
