Widow's Fire: A Widows & Shadows Mystery (Paperback or Softback)

With her family in fragments and hopes for a relationship with the charming Lord Braedon in peril, death and heartache cling to Lady Ravenna Birchfield like a shadow. Yet, life must go on in her charity work and in providing a home and guidance for her abandoned niece.

When Lord Franklin Thornley is murdered at a charity gala and a precious black opal known as the Widow's Fire goes missing, one of Ravenna's closest friends becomes the focus of the investigation. Determined to keep her friend out of prison, Ravenna searches for the killer.

As the investigation draws her deeper, Ravenna finds her past is coming back to haunt her. Old foes renew their threats against her and her family while the killer infiltrates her inner circle.

Caught in a web of lies, enemies, and political intrigue, can Ravenna discover the killer before everything she holds dear is destroyed?
