A novel by

 
 
The moment her father takes his final breath, Sarah Courtenay becomes the sole heir of her family's sprawling castle - and something far more unexpected. For on his deathbed, Lord Courtenay left his daughter a cryptic message: A dark curse will fall upon the house should Sarah fail to obtain and protect a priceless treasure. Sarah's astonishment upon discovering the carefully hidden sword sparkling with jewels is nothing compared to the shock she feels when she learns the nature of her father's death: He was poisoned. And now, Sarah herself might possess something worth killing for.

Desperate to avoid her father's fate, Sarah flees the only home she's ever known, taking with her a loyal maid and a hired bodyguard, who will stop at nothing to protect the beautiful woman in his care. From the safety of a remote farm, Sarah finds a renewed measure of peace and hope for the future. But the sinister weapon that glitters amid her belongings in that small farmhouse beckons a shadowy enemy, one who will not be deterred from taking everything from Sarah - including her life.
