Charming... Four interconnected visits to a world of danger, wit, beauty
and genuine romance. Treat yourself!--ANNE PERRY, internationally
bestselling author
A stellar line-up of historical mystery novelists weaves the tale of a
priceless and cursed gold watch as it passes through time wreaking havoc
from one owner to another. As the hours and years pass, the characters
are irrevocably linked by fate, each playing a key role in breaking the
curse and destroying the watch once and for all.
From 1733 Italy to Edinburgh in 1831 to a series of chilling murders in
1870 London, and a lethal game of revenge decades later, the watch
touches lives with misfortune, until it comes into the reach of one
young woman who might be able to stop it for good.
As much a book of curses as a book of destinies, The Deadly Hours is a
breathtaking anthology rich with atmosphere and intrigue that
encapsulates the exquisite destruction, heartbreak, and redemption
wrought by fate.
