Years later in Portugal, during the Peninsular Wars, they meet again, both of them spies, and destined to be working on opposing sides. He is now a captain with the British army. She is the widowed Marquesa das Minas. Amid the fury of war and in the shadow of secrets, passion flares once again. But falling in love could be the most dangerous risk of all... |
