The Lady in Red Trouble has come to the village of Kingston. A young nobleman has been murdered, and there are reports of a red-cloaked woman stalking the vicinity armed with a bow and arrow. It’s something that Myles Rutland, Duke of Beresford, didn’t anticipate he’d encounter on returning to his country seat for the first time in years. When his faithful butler is also killed, Myles vows to put an end to this lawlessness, including discovering the identity of the red-clad female who casts her shadow over the parish. Lady Lora Putney still grieves the cruel death of her older brother. Her best friend and her father’s heir is gone, throwing her family into disarray, as it seems Samuel Hawkesbury, her hateful cousin, is set to inherit Winterbourne and will expect her hand in marriage. The arrival of the Duke of Beresford at his neighboring estate is another unwelcome development. Lora will never forget how she lost her heart to Myles only to be cut by him at a Society ball. But no matter. All she cares about now is finding the man who so callously shot Nicholas and delivering her own brand of justice…

She high tails it to hot and humid Tallahassee, moves in down the block from where a now senile Spriggs lives with his daughter’s family, and begins the tricky work of insinuating herself into their lives.

A dark, twisty thriller about a centuries-old, ivy-covered boarding school haunted by its history of witchcraft and two girls dangerously close to digging up the past. The dangerous romance and atmospheric setting makes it a perfect read for fans of dark academia. Felicity Morrow is back at the Dalloway School. Perched in the Catskill Mountains, the centuries-old, ivy-covered campus was home until the tragic death of her girlfriend. Now, after a year away, she's returned to finish high school. She even has her old room in Godwin House, the exclusive dormitory rumored to be haunted by the spirits of five Dalloway students—girls some say were witches. The Dalloway Five all died mysteriously, one after another, right on Godwin grounds. Witchcraft is woven into Dalloway's past. The school doesn't talk about it, but the students do. In secret rooms and shadowy corners, girls convene. And before her girlfriend died, Felicity was drawn to the dark. She's determined to leave that behind now, but it's hard when Dalloway's occult history is everywhere. And when the new girl won't let her forget. It's Ellis Haley's first year at Dalloway, and she has already amassed a loyal following. A prodigy novelist at seventeen, Ellis is a so-called method writer. She's eccentric and brilliant, and Felicity can't shake the pull she feels to her. So when Ellis asks Felicity to help her research the Dalloway Five for her second book, Felicity can't say no. Given her history with the arcane, Felicity is the perfect resource. And when history begins to repeat itself, Felicity will have to face the darkness in Dalloway—and herself.
