It is the year 1747 and the Earl of Debenham believes he has successfully concealed his part in the Rebellion which ended in disaster two years before. He has wealth, great possessions and is to marry the loveliest debutante of the season. But then, into the Earl’s well-ordered existence, comes Kit, child of a fellow rebel and now a homeless waif. Unwillingly, he takes the urchin under his protection, unaware that he will soon be involved in an intrigue that will take all his courage and ingenuity to unravel. The Earl finds that his guardianship is fraught with both danger and delight as he and his ward face a ruthless adversary intent on revealing their perilous secrets.Dangerous Escapade was first published by Robert Hale Limited in 1979 as Dangerous Masquerade (re-titled to avoid confusion with the author’s Regency Masquerade series). It has been re-edited for this Kindle edition by the author.
