The Crystal Palace
Torrie St. Clair and Corinne Pettigrew had shared a girlhood of school. Together they had walked the rose-lined allees whispering of the elegant young beaux who courted them. They parted: Corinne to marry a wealthy, titled widower. Torrie to learn at first hand, the heartbreak of love…

When later they are reunited against the glittering background of the Crystal Palace, the architectural and social center of the age. There, amid the opulent balls and silken teas, a thrilling mystery unfolds, with fabulously gowned women and their charming escorts, flavorful cocknies and colorful servants all swept up in the whirlwind of a passionate, sometimes dangerous affair.
