When the beautiful, elusive Briar Woods bursts into Rosamund's train carriage, it's clear her sights are set on the captivated Jasmine. As Briar sets out to charm them both, Rosamund cannot shake the eerie feeling this accidental encounter isn't what it seems . . . Trade Paperback Book; 5.5 x 8.25 inches; 352 pages.
