Summary:
"November, 1815. The Battle of
Waterloo
has come and gone, leaving the British economy in shreds; Henry
Austen
, high-flying banker, is about to declare bankruptcy--dragging several of his brothers down with him. The crisis destroys Henry's health, and
Jane
flies to his London bedside, believing him to be dying. While she's there, the chaplain to His Royal Highness the Prince Regent invites
Jane
to tour Carlton House, the Prince's fabulous London home. The chaplain is a fan of
Jane
's books, and during the tour he suggests she dedicate her next novel--Emma--to HRH, whom she despises. However, before she can speak to HRH,
Jane
stumbles upon a body--sprawled on the carpet in the Regent's library. The dying man, Colonel MacFarland, was a cavalry hero and a friend of Wellington's. He utters a single failing phrase: '
Waterloo
map
'... and
Jane
is on the hunt for a treasure of incalculable value and a killer of considerable cunning."--From publisher.
