Lord Gabriel Morrowby's wounds have never healed. After an accident in a mineshaft, his life is full of pain. The pain in his heart is even deeper, for he knows the darkest of betrayals.

One day, at a friend's insistence, a formidable and capable lady arrives at his manor to assist him. Surely, she will mean nothing to him... moreLord Gabriel Morrowby's wounds have never healed.
