An Excerpt:

Eleanor moved through the crowd, absently greeting those who offered good wishes. Her father
stood with several friends, imposing in his midnight blue velvet robe and beaver hat. Their
conversation came to a halt when she approached. 
“My pardon. Father, where is Arthur?”
Lord Edmund de la Tour turned, a grim expression on his narrow face. His companions stared as if...
