Title: In the midst of lions
Description: Forced to live a lie, she was caught in the whirlwind of her father’s betrayal… 

In the 1890s, on the eve of a brand-new century, America exudes prosperity, technological marvels -- and complacency. But the lust for power breeds corruption, and against the deceptive charm of Old-South honor and tradition emerges a tale of intrigue, and murder.

Under the name of Elizabeth Granger, a young woman accepts the position of nanny for wealthy railroad baron Horatio Crump Junior’s five children, while secretly pursuing her quest to clear her real family name of a dark secret. During the War Between the States, her father stole a quarter of a million dollars in gold from his two partners -- Horatio Crump, Sr. and Booker Rattray. Suspicious of the silent shadows that haunt her past, Pinkerton Detective Agency operative Simon Kincaid weaves in and out of Elizabeth’s life as he stalks a predator who preys on the helpless. But it is Elizabeth who stumbles upon the sinister plot, putting her life in jeopardy and threatening the only happiness she has ever known. Will this lamb of God prevail “in the midst of lions?”
