DESCRIPTION:
Works for me Lacey's relationship with both of the Brandons comes to a head when Lacey's old commander is arrested for murder. Everyone seems to have secrets, and Lacey must solve the case against his old Commander's wishes, digging into the past. His feelings for his old friends' wife must be faced. Does he love her in a romantic way, or is it really just friendship?The murder is interesting, and Lacey's poking his nose into his friend's past is painfu. "A good story" according to Connie Sue 1. I have enjoyed all of the books in this series. This is another good story with interesting characters. I really like Captain Lacey.. Captain Lacey is a great sleuth. Carol the characters caught my attention from the first. Captain Lacey is a great sleuth.

The prime suspect: Lacey's former commander, Colonel Brandon.Instead of denying the charges, Colonel Brandon allows himself to be arrested, and claims, to Lacey's shock, that the lady he'd stayed protectively near at the ball is his mistress. London, 1817A Bow Street Runner summons Captain Gabriel Lacey to a Berkeley Square ballroom where a young dandy was stabbed to death during a society ball. Lacey realizes that he is the only person not convinced of Brandon's guilt--all present, including Brandon's wife, believe that Brandon committed the murder. Colonel Brandon's reticence to tell the truth proves to be Lacey's greatest obstacle in his race against time to prove Brandon's innocence. As Lacey's relationship with Lady Breckenridge moves forward, his hunt for evidence to clear Brandon uncovers dark secrets that go back to the Peninsular Wars and involve the origins of Lacey's and Brandon's private battle.
