Lady Arianna Hadley's desire for revenge has brought her back to London from exile in the West Indies. Determined to find the men responsible for her disgraced father's murder, she disguises herself as a man and contrives to be hired as a chef in one of London's aristocratic households. But when the prince regent is poisoned by Arianna's special chocolate dessert, she finds her own quest has become intertwined with a far more deadly intrigue.
Because of his expertise in chocolate, the earl of Saybrook is asked by the government to investigate the crime. Though he, too, is fighting inner demons, he reluctantly agrees. His first confrontation with Arianna has them at daggers drawn. But when someone tries to kill them both, they become reluctant allies in the hunt to discover what evil is afoot.
As their investigation takes them from the glittering ballrooms of Mayfair to the slums of St. Giles, they uncover a cunning plan of fraud that could throw the government into chaos. Determined to bring the culprits to justice, they set an elaborate trap, but they find themselves dancing on a razor's edge - and one false step will prove fatal....

Mary Smith's narration is a theatrical force. I was warned by a few of the reviews so I listened to the sample. The characters do have foreign accents. After the first and second chapter my ear was attuned and I understood every word. Mary Smith uses expression and some volume to portray stress and excitement, this is theatrical not annoying. Since the characters are not only English, French, Scottish and Spanish, they also speak those languages with the Caribbean island lilt. These accents are unusual, not incorrect.
Do not be put off by other reviews, listen to the sample. If you enjoy an intelligent reading experience and are willing to be involved with the story, you will be rewarded.
I will recommend this book to my friends who love to read.
