Description
Amity Doncaster es una viajera experimentada acostumbrada al peligro y Benedict Stanbridge es un hombre de ciencia y espía al servicio de la Corona británica. Pero ambos están a punto de enfrentarse a una amenaza en su propio territorio... Una mujer no espera que la secuestren en una calle londinense a plena luz del día. No obstante, Amity Doncaster consigue salir indemne tras verse atrapada en un carruaje con un hombre que oculta su rostro tras una máscara de seda y empuña una hoja afilada, mientras le susurra al oído insultos y amenazas. Su ingenio y su arma secreta la salvan... por el momento. Sin embargo, el monstruo conocido por la prensa como «el Novio», que ha dejado un reguero de víctimas a su paso, pronto volverá a las andadas. Está obsesionado con la relación ilícita que une a Amity con Benedict Stanbridge, acicateado por los rumores acerca de las horas que pasaron a solas en un camarote mientras parecían cruzar el Atlántico más rápido que cualquier navío. Para dos personas habilidosas a la hora de desaparecer y que han estado en los rincones más exóticos del planeta, huir siempre es una opción. Sin embargo, Amity y Benedict tienen la firme intención de acabar con el reino del terror que el Novio ha impuesto en Londres, y a fin de lograrlo han decidido unir sus fuerzas. Y mientras se disponen a plantar cara a un criminal desequilibrado en el centro de la ciudad que adoran, tienen que hacer frente a unos sentimientos de los que ninguno de ellos puede huir...

One does not expect to be kidnapped on a London street in broad daylight. Yet Amity Doncaster barely escapes with her life after she is trapped in a carriage with the killer known in the press as the Bridegroom. He is unwholesomely obsessed by her scandalous connection to Benedict Stanbridge--gossip about their hours alone in a ship's stateroom seems to have crossed the Atlantic faster than any sailing vessel could.
