In the shadows of London and the splendor of Venice, a thief and a lady must risk everything for love and survival. Jack Covert, once known as Jack Redstone, left behind his noble heritage to become one of London's most skilled thieves, living by his own code and shunning his painful past. His solitary existence is upended when a rare job in Bloomsbury brings him face to face with the captivating Mildred diRossi.
