A wealthy family. A deadly secret. A girl with more to lose than she knows.
NEW YORK, 1890
Josephine Montfort is from one of New York's most respected and wealthiest families. Like more affluent girls, Jo's future is set: a comfortable life in a suitable marriage - but her heart can't help yearning for more.
And then her father is found dead. It was supposedly a tragic accident, although some details don't seem to quite add up. Was it really an accident . . . or worse, murder?
With the help of a young reporter, Eddie Gallagher, Jo is in a race against time to find the culprit. Escaping her gilded cage could be dangerous and Jo will have to face some dark characters on the gritty streets of New York. But some secrets can't stay hidden forever, no matter how deep you bury them.
