Description
Elizabeth has discovered that navigating the rules of high society is the biggest con of all. She knows she can play the game, but so far, her only success is Priscilla Knight, a dedicated young suffragist recently widowed for the second time. Her beloved first husband died in a tragic accident and left her with two young daughters — and a sizable fortune. While she was lost in grief, Priscilla’s pastor convinced her she needed a man to look after her and engineered a whirlwind courtship and hasty marriage to fellow parishioner Endicott Knight. Now, about nine months later, Endicott is dead in what appears to be another terrible accident.

Description
So far, Elizabeth Miles's only real social success has been with Priscilla Knight, a dedicated suffragist. Her beloved first husband, DeForrest Jenks, died in a tragic accident and left her with two young daughters and a comfortable fortune. Her pastor convinced her she needed a man to look after her, and engineered a whirlwind courtship and hasty marriage to fellow parishioner Endicott Knight. Less than nine months later, Endicott is also dead-- in an even more suspicious accident. When Priscilla's banker claims she has hardly any money left and that her house has been mortgaged, Priscilla doesn't know whom to trust. Elizabeth discovers unsavory evidence pointing to the possibility that Endicott's death may have been connected to blackmail.--Adapted from back cover.
