Join Georgettes as we celebration the launch of Penny Hampson’s latest Regency Novel An Adventurer’s Contract at the back room of the Gardeners Arms. Come along, meet local author Penny Hampson, watch some Regency dancing and enjoy a glass of bubbly.
An Adventurer’s Contract
A man on the hunt for a traitor. A woman in search of the truth.
Gabrielle Mercer is in trouble. Her cousin is missing, her father’s death looks like murder, and now there are rumours she is spying for the French. With no one to turn to, dare she accept help from a man she doesn’t like?
Jack Ashdown is on a mission to unmask a ruthless spy. Could it be the reclusive young Frenchwoman who has made no secret of her contempt for Englishmen like himself? Perhaps Gabrielle’s predicament will be the perfect opportunity to win her trust and do some spying of his own.
Getting close to one’s enemy is a dangerous option, but the stakes for Jack and Gabrielle are too high to ignore. Will their gamble to trust one another lead to disaster, or will they discover that neither of them is what they seem?
