Synopsis
Fascinating reading authentic atmosphere in a delightful English tale. Chicago Sunday Tribune
Less than a hero s welcome
Returning to his family seat from Waterloo, Gervase Frant, seventh Earl of St Erth, could have expected more enthusiasm for his homecoming. His quiet cousin, stepmother, and young half-brother seem openly disappointed that he survived the wars. And when he begins to fall for his half-brother s sweetheart, his chilly reception goes from unfriendly to positively murderous.
One of Heyer s most suspenseful Regency romances, The Quiet Gentleman combines an ingenious mystery plot with her signature witty style and effervescently engaging characters.
