Description
When Christopher “Kit” Fancot returns from diplomatic service, he finds his identical twin, Evelyn, mysteriously absent—and an important engagement, family reputation, and inheritance hanging in the balance. At his persuasive mother’s urging, Kit reluctantly assumes Evelyn’s identity, plunging into a delicate web of obligations, misunderstandings, and romantic complications. As the deception grows increasingly difficult to maintain, Kit must rely on his quick wit, charm, and resourcefulness to protect those he loves while navigating the perilous rules of fashionable society. A sparkling Regency comedy of manners, the novel combines mistaken identity, family loyalty, social satire, and an unexpectedly heartfelt romance in Georgette Heyer’s characteristically brisk and elegant style.
