Usually I really like Coulter's books, but this one fell a bit short. There were things people did that seemed to be out of character for this time period: 1831 England. For example, a young lady is brought into society. She and her young aunt spend ALL of their time with two men who are uncle and nephew at the uncle's estate, Ravenscar. The uncle is accused of murdering his wife three years ago and the young lady (after having known him only a couple of weeks) grabs the lapels on his jacket, shakes him and says, "you're not a murderer!" Hmm.The adventure aspect was pretty good, although I would have liked to read more about the smuggling business.This book falls into the "fluff reading" category.

Fun, light read... Can't believe it is a Catherine Coulter!
