## Snapshot

A royal hostess whose tea party pulls Reggie Fortune into a diplomatic tangle of scandal, secrets, and inconvenient corpses.

## Who they are

She moves in the highest circles, where a tea party is never merely tea and an invitation can be a summons. Around her gather the titled, the ambitious, and the compromised—people whose private lives are matters of public consequence. When Reggie is drawn into her orbit, his sleepy surgeon's manner has to contend with the delicate machinery of rank, where a scandal is a weapon and discretion is the only currency.
