Book summary

Nineteenth-century publishers rejected Louisa May Alcott's manuscript as too sensationalist. Today's readers can surely handle the stuff of this grown-up romantic thriller from the author of "Little Women." In it, Rosamond, a smart, strong-willed young woman who desires love and adventure falls for a wealthy, dangerously seductive Phillip Tempest, who takes her away to France to mingle with high society. When Rosamond learns that her husband has hidden an amoral past and a frightening nature, she flees. Phillip follows her across Europe in this high-paced drama of deception, bigamy, domination, and murder.
