This week's snippet is from my first Regency novel,
No Job For a Woman
(now available online for the special price of $2.99)
“If we all turn up and start
asking questions, it would get back to the Graingers. They may assume we know about their latest
threat, but equally, they can’t be certain.”
Husband and wife waited when
Julian paused.
“On consideration let me go
alone tomorrow. I’ll tell Deborah you’ve invited her to spend next weekend with
you, Henri, and if Brandon hears of the invitation, there’s little he can make
of it.”
“Why would you go, and not
me?”
“Because you want to spend
time alone with your wife before Clara returns from visiting her aunt in
Leicestershire. And—,” he added, “I think Deborah may not be so resistant if
the information and conclusions we have reached come from me rather than you.”
