The Truth in the Season
(2026)(The third book in the Ashford Deception Trilogy series)
A novel by Eva Lyndale
London does not ease into scandal; it takes hold and refuses to release. When Viscount Nicholas Ashford is framed for treason by a shadowy network within his own elite circles, the War Office demands a quiet confession to protect the institution. Accused of selling naval signal codes and supply routes, Nicholas's first instinct is to protect his new wife, Eliza, by legally dissolving their marriage and forcing her into a safe exile. But Eliza, a woman who has spent her life being managed by men, categorically rejects his noble sacrifice. She refuses to be arranged into absence.
As the scandal sheets call for Ashford’s ruin , Eliza orchestrates a daring counter-offensive to clear his name. With the help of her brother Edmund and a loyal inner circle, she uncovers a conspiracy that leads straight to the heart of Nicholas’s own family—his uncle, Lord Adrian Vale, who used the Langford family crest to cover his crimes. To survive the season and the gallows, Nicholas must surrender his need for control, and Eliza must risk her reputation by springing a public trap to expose the true traitor.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
