The Silver Bone

The Marleigh Sisters

From the author of&nbsp;Unladylike Rules of Attraction&nbsp;comes the swoon-worthy, suspenseful final installment of the Marleigh Sisters series.&nbsp;Mira Marleigh, as far as the public is concerned, is an unassuming companion. She quietly drifts through London society accompanying her dear friend and confidant, Ursula. Mira flies under the radar, which is exactly how she likes it, because unbeknownst to everyone besides her sisters and Ursula, she is the anonymous author of one of the most popular society circulars under the pseudonym&nbsp;Aurelius. As a purveyor of society gossip, keeping a low profile allows her to see and hear nearly everything. But is this prosaic, passionless persona that she has carefully constructed really who Mira wants to be?When one of her circulars detailing a heated argument between the blue-blooded brothers Stephen and Finnegan Underwood ends up as the basis for the case against Finnegan when Stephen turns up dead not two days later, Stephen’s widow, Lucretia, is desperate for Aurelius’s help in proving Finnegan innocent. So, acting as Aurelius’s “assistant,” Mira travels to the coastal town of Devonshire where she agrees to help the young widow. But a chance seaside encounter with a smoldering mystery man might change everything… will he be the key to unlocking the truth, and perhaps Mira’s heart, or could he be her downfall?

Three Act Tragedy

Based on the true story of a famous trial, this novel is Law and Order: 1800, as Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr investigate the shocking murder of a young woman who everyone--and no one--seemed to know.

“This is historical fiction at its best.”&nbsp;--Book ReporterBased on the true story of a famous trial, this novel is Law and Order: 1800, as Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr investigate the shocking murder of a young woman who everyone—and no one—seemed to know.At the start of a new century, a shocking murder transfixes Manhattan, forcing bitter rivals Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr to work together to save a man from the gallows.&nbsp;Just before Christmas 1799, Elma Sands slips out of her Quaker cousin’s boarding house—and doesn’t come home.&nbsp;Has she eloped?&nbsp;Run away? No one knows—until her body appears in the Manhattan Well.Her family insists they know who killed her.&nbsp;Handbills circulate around the city accusing a carpenter named Levi Weeks of seducing and murdering Elma.&nbsp;But privately, quietly, Levi’s wealthy brother calls in a special favor….Aaron Burr’s legal practice can’t finance both his expensive tastes and his ambition to win the 1800 New York elections.&nbsp;To defend Levi Weeks is a double win: a hefty fee plus a chance to grab headlines.Alexander Hamilton has his own political aspirations; he isn’t going to let Burr monopolize the public’s attention. If Burr is defending Levi Weeks, then Hamilton will too. As the trial and the election draw near, Burr and Hamilton race against time to save a man’s life—and destroy each other.Part murder mystery, part thriller, part true crime, The Girl From Greenwich Street revisits a dark corner of history—with a surprising twist ending that reveals the true story of the woman at the center of the tale.“A real triumph! In Lauren Willig’s brilliant retelling of one of the most famous murder trials in American history, she brings to poignant life its most forgotten figure — the high-spirited young woman whose killing was used by the trial’s lawyers, Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, for their own political ends. Willig gives us a masterful portrait of the many perils of being a woman in this country’s earliest years.” — Lynne Olsen, New York Times bestselling author of Empress of the Nile
