    Summary

    London, 1887

    Tom Hayward is, by every account, a good man. He is also a complete fiction. A name stitched together to hide the criminal empire growing beneath London's respectable surface. Beneath James Moriarty's careful performance is a man losing his grip due to the one thing he never accounted for — the plain sister clever enough to discover the truth.

    Summary

    Mary Bennet spends her summer in London juggling a geology research competition, a part-time job at her uncle's jewellery shop, and a family convinced she should have chosen a more profitable passion than rocks.

    While ostensibly helping Mr Gardiner with the jewellery shop's insurance paperwork, Tom Hayward soon finds himself inventing increasingly implausible reasons to visit Mary.

    Amid mistaken assumptions and one infuriatingly well-meaning William Ryder, Tom and Mary slowly discover that to be loved is, perhaps, to be understood on one's own terms.

    Or: The summer in which Mary Bennet finds love, and more importantly, finds herself.
