1791. The dressmaker, his lover and his lover's wife. A house full of secrets where danger lies behind every door.
Matthew came from nothing. Now he is a skilled corset-maker adored by high society. But he must hide his true self from prying eyes, seeking love in the riotous underbelly of Georgian molly houses. If outed, he will face the noose.
When he falls in love with aristocrat Henry, he is hired as private dressmaker to Henry's wife, Elina, so they can continue their secret affair.
The three live together in uneasy tension inside the huge dark country mansion, and Matthew soon discovers Elina has secrets of her own. Slowly he is drawn into her dangerous world of revolutionary politics.
When the truth about Matthew and Henry threatens to explode their lives, Matthew is forced to make a devastating choice: who does he save? His lover or his friend?
A thrilling and devastating read perfect for fans of Sarah Waters, Jessie Burton and A.J. West.
