      Clementine Morris expects to live and teach at the workhouse for the rest of her life. It's 1835 in England, and the prospects for women, especially the poor ones, are dismal. Then one day, out of the blue, Zachariah Fleet, a wealthy bachelor, hires her as a governess for his orphaned niece and nephew. Zachariah's choice of governess is actually far from random, however. He believes that Clementine is a distant relativeindeed, a lost heiress. Just as everything seems to be going well for Clementine, including a romance with Zachariah, Alexandra comes into the picture. She claims not only to have the same father as Clementine but also greater right to the inheritance. To make matters worse, Alexandra also has her sights set on Zachariah. Which woman is the rightful heiress? And, more urgently, who is trying to murder both women for the money? The skilled and always compelling Woods (Moon Cutters, 2014) keeps readers guessing until the very end of her latest historical romance.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2014, American Library Association.)
