As he grows into a handsome, charismatic man, Edward is torn between duty and desire. There are women in his life for whom he ll risk everything and one woman who might destroy him. But madness and secrecy lie at the heart of the family, and Edward s enemies are far more ruthless than he knows. He will need his strength more than ever when the house of Deravenel is fatally rocked by betrayal from within. Who will become the ultimate ruler of the Deravenels? Power and money, passion and adultery, ambition and treachery all illuminate a dramatic epic saga that brings to life the glittering Edwardian Era.
