Finding Diana

Regency England has left both Diana Butterwick and Michael Pennington disgraced, though for different reasons: each has been pushed out of respectable society by injustice and deception. Kathleen Judd follows the two of them as they work to uncover the wrongs done to each.

The trouble begins when Mrs Firbeck arrives at a party held at the Pennington house with her quick-witted daughter, Lucy. The evening sets in motion crimes that will take years to untangle. Diana forfeits her standing and her engagement, while Michael, who has cut every connection to the Pennington name, can no longer bring himself to respect his family.

Diana now lives in hiding under an assumed anonymity, and Michael has been sent to war on a commission. When he comes home, the only way he can make amends for what happened between them is to find Diana.
