To celebrate, I decided to post an extended excerpt. I can only post less than 10% (because of Amazon’s policies) so the excerpt ends in the middle of chapter two.
(On a random side note, I just realized I forgot to post the excerpts for volumes 2 and 3 in the series. Maybe I’ll do that after posting the excerpt of volume 4. Which seems weird, so maybe I won’t? Or you can read the excerpts on my website: Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 2: Berserker, Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 3: Aggressor.)
Here’s the back cover description:
Beleaguered spies
Lady Wynwood’s team of spies are trying to heal from the physical and mental wounds recently dealt to them. However, their investigation into Apothecary Jack’s mysterious group has turned up only a few strange, disjointed clues, and the dangerous Root elixir continues to circulate in the London underbelly. It is only a matter of time before the Root is sold to Napoleon, which would give him overwhelming dominance in the war.
Sudden threats
Then Laura, Lady Wynwood, is unexpectedly attacked by a man she had trusted. Although Phoebe and her household staff manage to protect her, her life is now in danger and she must go into hiding.
Dangerous mysteries
Laura uncovers more secrets kept by her late husband that shed illumination on his enigmatic mistress, Bianca. In the meantime, the team follows the trail of Laura’s attacker, which might enable them to capture Apothecary Jack or his compatriot, the pale-eyed man.
All the while, they are unaware that the hunters have become the hunted.
PLEASE NOTE: Like the novels published in Jane Austen’s time, this is a novel in multiple parts. Each volume has a completed story arc, but this is NOT a stand-alone novel and ends on a cliffhanger.
Camy here: I’ll be posting the excerpt in four separate blog posts.
I’m currently writing volume 5! Since volume 4 ends on a cliffhanger, as soon as I’m close to finishing volume 5, I’ll release Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 4: Betrayer, and then release volume 5 one month after that.
Below are the links to the parts of the excerpt of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 4: Betrayer. (I created the html links by hand so please let me know if any of them are dead links.) Enjoy!
