Review: Book got better and better as I read along (and didn't cheat me out of an exciting finish with regards to a deadly duel, too!)

"By morning he would be dead or disgraced" was the first passage that caught my attention as a military man was ensnared in a web of deceit that would cost him his life unless he could unravel the plot in time. Book became a tautly written mystery complete with a large cast of well-developed characters and even some old-fashioned romance thrown in for good measure (this book is set in the year 1906, after all). Might have earned 5 stars were it not for some editing issues, but story still turned out to be one I really enjoyed! I'll leave you with one final passage "Helena, my enemies are very cunning, very determined, very dangerous." Very good book!
