One of the best-known and most beloved historical novelists, Georgette Heyer has captured a whole new audience’s heart.

When she steps inside the wrong carriage in a Sussex village, Elinor Rochdale little knows that she is about to embark on a thrilling and dangerous adventure.

Overnight the would-be governess becomes the mistress of a ruined estate and partner in a secret conspiracy to save a family’s name.

By midnight she is a bride; by dawn a widow.

A sweeping and romantic tale of romance and tragedy, The Reluctant Widow is Georgette Heyer at her best as a young woman’s life is dramatically changed in a single instant.
