Book Description

Excerpt from The Cardinal's Snuff-Box Peter's eyes met hers, took in her face. And suddenly his heart gave a jump. Then it stopped dead still, tingling, for a second. Then it flew ofi', racing perilously. Oh, for reasons - for the best reasons in the world but thereby hangs my tale.
